Genes affected
PMS2 (HGNC:9122): (PMS1 homolog 2, mismatch repair system component) The protein encoded by this gene is a key component of the mismatch repair system that functions to correct DNA mismatches and small insertions and deletions that can occur during DNA replication and homologous recombination. This protein forms heterodimers with the gene product of the mutL homolog 1 (MLH1) gene to form the MutL-alpha heterodimer. The MutL-alpha heterodimer possesses an endonucleolytic activity that is activated following recognition of mismatches and insertion/deletion loops by the MutS-alpha and MutS-beta heterodimers, and is necessary for removal of the mismatched DNA. There is a DQHA(X)2E(X)4E motif found at the C-terminus of the protein encoded by this gene that forms part of the active site of the nuclease. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC; also known as Lynch syndrome) and Turcot syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016]

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

Variant summary: PMS2 c.400C>T (p.Arg134X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (eg. c.697C>T, p.Gln233X; c.736_741delinsTGTGTGTGAAG, p.Pro246fsX3). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.2e-06 in 121392 control chromosomes. c.400C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Turcot syndrome who carry a second pathogenic variant (DeVos_2004) and in patients with Lynch Syndrome and colorectal cancer (Senter_2008, Durno_2005). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Additionally, this variant was found to have a dominant negative effect in hamster fibroblast cells (Nicolaides_1998) but not in human fibroblast cells (Yamada_2003). However, the variant was found to abrogate the interaction with MLH1 (Nicolaides_1998), a known pathogenic mechanism. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

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

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 5 of the PMS2 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 individuals affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 18602922, 26720728, 26895986), and in an individual suspected of hereditary breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 26270727). This variant has also been reported in individuals affected with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (PMID: 7661930, 15077197, 15845562, 21376568, 26318770). This variant has been identified in 2/276892 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PMS2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg134X variant in PMS2 has been reported in at least 6 families (7 individuals) with PMS2-associated cancers (Parsons 1995 PMID: 7632227, Norquist 2016 PMID: 26720728, Rosty 2016 PMID: 26895986, LaDuca 2017 PMID: 28152038, Carter 2018 PMID: 30322717) and in the compound heterozygous state in 2 families (3 individuals) with constitutional mismatch repair disease (CMMRD; De Vos 2004 PMID: 15077197, Lavoine 2015 PMID: 26318770). It has also been identified in 1/128850 of European and 1/35440 of Latino chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 134, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PMS2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. In vitro functional studies support an impact on protein function (Parsons 1995 PMID: 7632227, Nicolaides 1998 PMID: 9488480, Gibson 2006 PMID: 16426742). In addition, this variant was classified as pathogenic on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (SCV000108365.2). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Moderate, PS3_Moderate. -

This nonsense variant causes the premature termination of PMS2 protein synthesis. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000071 (2/282538 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is consistent with pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 26895986 (2016), 18602922 (2008)), Turcot syndrome (PMIDs: 15077197 (2004), 7661930 (1995)), ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 30322717 (2018), 26720728 (2016), 26681312 (2015)), and breast cancer (PMID: 35449176 (2022)). It has also been identified in individuals with CMMRD (PMIDs: 26318770 (2015), 25850602 (2015), 15077197 (2004)). Functional studies indicate this variant causes impaired DNA mismatch repair activity (PMIDs: 9488480 (1998), 7632227 (1995)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The p.R134* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.400C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the PMS2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 400. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals with Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome caused by biallelic PMS2 mutations (Hamilton SR et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 1995 Mar;332:839-47; De Vos M et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2004 May;74:954-64; Lavoine N et al. J. Med. Genet. 2015 Nov;52:770-8). This mutation has also been identified in multiple patients with Lynch syndrome-associated tumors that showed isolated loss of PMS2 protein expression on IHC (Senter L et al. Gastroenterology. 2008 Aug;135:419-28; Rosty C et al. BMJ Open. 2016 Feb;6:e010293). This alteration has also been detected in 1/1915 women with ovarian cancer, unselected for family history (Norquist BM et al. JAMA Oncol. 2016 Apr;2:482-90). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg134*) in the PMS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PMS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21376568, 24362816). This variant is present in population databases (rs63750871, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency, colorectal cancer, Lynch syndrome, and ovarian cancer (PMID: 15077197, 18602922, 23012243, 25850602, 26318770, 26681312, 26895986). Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this PMS2 variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 1,370,736 individuals referred to our laboratory for PMS2 testing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 9234). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on gene product structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on PMS2 function (PMID: 7632227, 9488480, 12714694). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
