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]

This nonsense variant causes the premature termination of PMS2 protein synthesis. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome and breast cancer, as well as in unaffected controls (PMIDs: 33471991 (2021), 31992580 (2020), 31118792 (2019), 31101557 (2019), 30729418 (2019), 30521064 (2019), 29667044 (2018), 28975465 (2017), 27273229 (2017)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: PMS2 c.631C>T (p.Arg211X) 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. The variant was absent in 251494 control chromosomes. c.631C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colorectal cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, or breast cancer (Jiang_2019, Buchanan_2016, Ohmoto_2018, Siraj_2017). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Four 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

The p.Arg211X variant in PMS2 has been reported in at least 4 individuals affected with colorectal cancer (Buchanan 2017 PMID: 27273229, Siraj 2017 PMID: 28975465, Ohmoto 2018 PMID: 29667044, Jiang 2019 PMID: 30521064); one of those individuals was also affected with pancreatic cancer (Ohmoto 2018 PMID: 29667044). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 234508) and was absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 211, 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 summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting, PS4_Supporting, PVS1. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 6 of the PMS2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 27273229, 28975465, 29667044, 30521064) with one individual also affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 29667044). This variant has not been identified 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R211* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.631C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the PMS2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 631. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 6. 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg211*) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 27273229). 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: 234508). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
