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]

Jan 25, 2019
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano
Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Not found in the gnomAD exomes dataset, and the data is high quality (0/159092 chr). Found in at least one symptomatic patient. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. -

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

This variant is denoted PMS2 c.2506G>T at the cDNA level and p.Glu836Ter (E836X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Glutamic Acid to a premature stop codon (GAG>TAG), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Even though this variant occurs near the end of the gene and nonsense-mediated decay is not expected to occur, it is significant since the last 26 amino acids are no longer translated. Furthermore, the truncation would disrupt a portion of the endonuclease domain and a conserved Zinc binding motif (Kosinski 2008, Fukui 2011). Although this variant has not, to our knowledge, been reported in the literature, it is considered likely pathogenic. -

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

Variant summary: PMS2 c.2506G>T (p.Glu836X) results in a premature termination codon in the last exon of PMS2, and is predicted to cause a truncation of the last 27 amino acids of the PMS2 protein. Other truncating variants in this region have been classified as pathogenic in ClinVar. Additionally, this region of the protein (amino acids 675 - 850) has been shown to be critical for interaction between PMS2 and MLH1 (PMID: 10037723). The variant was absent in 167792 control chromosomes in GnomAD. However, the region is highly homologous to PMS2 pseudogenes, and the technology utilized for this dataset does not rule out pseudogene interference, therefore these data might not be reliable for assessing variant frequency. c.2506G>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Lynch Syndrome (Espenschied_2017). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

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.Glu836*) in the PMS2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 27 amino acid(s) of the PMS2 protein. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases (gnomAD) is considered unreliable due to the presence of homologous sequence, such as pseudogenes or paralogs, in the genome. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 28514183). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183718). This variant disrupts a region of the PMS2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp841Glyfs*10) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 26116798, 30764633). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

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

The p.E836* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2506G>T), located in coding exon 15 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2506. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 15. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of PMS2 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 3.1% of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
