Laboratory for Molecular Medicine,Partners HealthCare Personalized Medicine	RCV000076804	SCV000271438	pathogenic	Lynch syndrome	2016-03-03	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The p.Arg421X variant in PMS2 has been reported in one carrier with unspecified phenotype (Suerink 2015), and was absent from large population studies. This non sense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 421, which is p redicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the PMS2 gene is an established disease mechanism in Lynch syndrome. In summ ary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Lynch sy ndrome in an autosomal dominant manner based upon the predicted impact to the pr otein.

GeneDx	RCV000219846	SCV000279393	pathogenic	not provided	2018-11-20	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This pathogenic variant is denoted PMS2 c.1261C>T at the cDNA level and p.Arg421Ter (R421X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes an Arginine to a premature stop codon (CGA>TGA), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant has been observed in at least two individuals with suspected Lynch Syndrome (Vaughn 2013, Suerink 2015). The International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours Incorporated (InSiGHT) classifies this variant as pathogenic (Thompson 2014). Based on current information, we consider this variant to be pathogenic.
Invitae	RCV000627692	SCV000285057	pathogenic	Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer	2018-12-07	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg421*) in the PMS2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer and/or suspected Lynch syndrome (PMID: 23012243, 26110232). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91299). Loss-of-function variants in PMS2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21376568, 24362816). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
