Genes affected
MUTYH (HGNC:7527): (mutY DNA glycosylase) This gene encodes a DNA glycosylase involved in oxidative DNA damage repair. The enzyme excises adenine bases from the DNA backbone at sites where adenine is inappropriately paired with guanine, cytosine, or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine, a major oxidatively damaged DNA lesion. The protein is localized to the nucleus and mitochondria. This gene product is thought to play a role in signaling apoptosis by the introduction of single-strand breaks following oxidative damage. Mutations in this gene result in heritable predisposition to colorectal cancer, termed MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 2 of the MUTYH gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in an individual affected with MUTYH-associated polyposis (PMID: 32888815), in biallelic individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 19732775, 32973888), and in an individual with an unknown second allele affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 33563768). This variant has also been reported in individuals affected with lung cancer (PMID: 35712480; Wu, et al. poster #230, AACR 2023), renal cell carcinoma (PMID: 33062672), breast cancer (PMID: 33901219), as well as in individuals that participated in genetic screening (PMID: 34428338, 34404389). This variant has been identified in 2/251478 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MUTYH function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg19*) in the MUTYH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MUTYH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18534194, 20663686). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780088, gnomAD 0.006%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with adenomatous polyposis and colorectal cancer (PMID: 19394335, 22641385, 24799981). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127845). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R19* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.55C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the MUTYH gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 55. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 2. The predicted stop codon occurs within the first 150 nucleotides of the MUTYH gene. This alteration may escape nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and/or be rescued by re-initiation (Rivas et al. Science. 2015 May 8;348(6235):666-9; Lindeboom et al. Nat. Genet. 2016 Oct;48(10):1112-8; Rhee et al. Sci. Rep. 2017 May 10;7(1):1653). However, the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This mutation has been reported in individuals with clinical diagnoses of MUTYH-associated polyposis, including one male diagnosed with colon cancer at age 43 who had 60-70 total colon polyps and co-occurrence with MUTYH c.1147delC (Nielsen M et al. Gastroenterology. 2009 Feb;136:471-6; Jones N et al. Gastroenterology. 2009 Aug;137:489-94; Vogt S et al. Gastroenterology. 2009 Dec;137:1976-85; Li CG et al. J. Gastroenterol. Hepatol. 2017 Oct;32(10):1723-1729). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
