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]
AIMP2 (HGNC:20609): (aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 2) The protein encoded by this gene is part of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase complex, which contains nine different aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases and three non-enzymatic factors. The encoded protein is one of the non-enzymatic factors and is required for assembly and stability of the complex. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
May 23, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg3*) 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 variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PMS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234658). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Jan 02, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R3* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.7C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the PMS2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 7. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 1. This alteration was reported in a cohort of women undergoing multigene panel testing for hereditary cancer risk (Roberts ME et al. Genet Med, 2018 10;20:1167-1174). In another report, this alteration was identified in a proband with colorectal cancer diagnosed at age 44 that demonstrated high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and loss of MLH1 protein expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC); however, PMS2 protein expression was reported to be non-interpretable (Wang Q et al. J Med Genet, 2020 07;57:487-499). This alteration was also identified in conjunction with a somatic pathogenic PMS2 variant in a proband whose MSI-H Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated isolated loss of PMS2 protein expression on IHC (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -
