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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 7-5995585-TG-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-5995585-TG-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 231108.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The PMS2 c.851delC (p.Ser284X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent PMS2 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 (e.g. c.861_864delACAG, p.Arg287fsX19; c.1021delA, p.Arg341fsX15; c.1164delT, p.His388fsX10). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 121008 control chromosomes and has been reported in the literature in a cohort of individuals being tested by a multi-gene panel, with no phenotype data provided for the individual carrying the variant (Espenschied_2017). Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Observed in an individual undergoing multigene panel testing in the published literature (Espenschied 2017); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28514183) -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1

Mar 27, 2023

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser284*) 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: 231108). -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1

Mar 25, 2021

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.851delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the PMS2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 851, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.S284*). This mutation has been identified in a patient undergoing multi-gene panel testing for a personal and/or family history of cancer (Espenschied CR et al. J Clin Oncol, 2017 Aug;35:2568-2575). 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. -
