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 sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 196 of the MUTYH protein (p.Glu196Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781645, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MUTYH-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141306). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with aspartic acid at codon 196 of the MUTYH protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals referred for hereditary cancer screening (PMID: 31159747). In a large international case-control study, this variant was reported in 1/60466 breast cancer cases and 1/53461 controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MUTYH-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 5/251470 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.E196D variant (also known as c.588G>C), located in coding exon 8 of the MUTYH gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 588. The glutamic acid at codon 196 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported as variant of uncertain significance in 2/1197 individuals from Greece, Romania, and Turkey undergoing evaluation for inherited cancer predisposition (Tsaousis GN et al. BMC Cancer, 2019 Jun;19:535). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
