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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes an A to G nucleotide substitution at the -5 position of intron 7 of the MUTYH gene. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes aberrant splicing and results in a partial retention of intron 7 (r.576_577ins577-4_577-1), which is predicted to cause a frameshift and premature protein truncation (PMID: 32133419, 33011440). This variant has been observed in the homozygous state and compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with severe polyposis (PMID: 32133419, 33011440, 34704405). This variant has been identified in 1/251474 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 7 of the MUTYH gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MUTYH protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs758377868, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of MUTYH-associated polyposis (PMID: 10612827, 21520333, 32133419, 33011440; Invitae; external communication). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 183746). Studies have shown that this variant results in activation of a cryptic splice site, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 32133419, 33011440; Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Variant summary: MUTYH c.577-5A>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: One predicts the variant abolishes a 3 acceptor site. Two predict the variant weakens a 3 acceptor site. Two predict the variant creates a 3 cryptic acceptor site. Additionally, at least two RNA studies report this variant causes aberrant splicing and shows the inclusion of the last four nucleotides of intron 7 [r.576_577ins(577-4_577-1)], which presumably would generate a truncated protein (p.Val165Serfs*61) (Landrith_2020, Rofes_2020). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 252164 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication data). c.577-5A>G has been reported in the literature in two individuals affected with severe polyposis and one homozygous individual with personal and family records of colorectal polyps (Landrith_2020, Rofes_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance (n=3), likely pathogenic (n=2) and pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.493-5A>G (NM_001048174.2) intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 5 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 8 in the MUTYH gene. It has been previously reported in the homozygous state and/or compound heterozygous state in individuals with clinical characteristics of MUTYH-associated polyposis (PMID: 32133419, 33011440, 34704405). In silico analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice site. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes abnormal splicing and results in an inclusion of 4bp (PMID: 32133419, 33011440). Therefore the available evidence suggests that this variant is likely to be pathogenic.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.577-5A>G intronic pathogenic mutation results from an A to G substitution 5 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 8 in the MUTYH gene. This variant has been identified in conjunction with pathogenic MUTYH mutations in probands with adenomatous polyposis (Ambry internal data). This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. In a study involving RNA extraction for RT-PCR and Sanger sequencing of 10 hereditary cancer genes, incomplete disruption of the natural splice site was observed for this alteration (Rofes P et al. J Mol Diagn. 2020 12;22:1453-1468). RNA studies have demonstrated this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (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 alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
