RCV000223294 | SCV000279935 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2019-07-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV000570228 | SCV000676166 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2020-03-17 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.R443S variant (also known as c.1329A>T), located in coding exon 11 of the PMS2 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 1329. The arginine at codon 443 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |
Invitae | RCV000630221 | SCV000751177 | uncertain significance | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2022-09-07 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 443 of the PMS2 protein (p.Arg443Ser). 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: 234869). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt PMS2 protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |

RCV000570228 | SCV000904174 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-12-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces arginine with serine at codon 443 of the PMS2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with PMS2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251440 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |

RCV001255534 | SCV001431996 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2020-08-13 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: PMS2 c.1329A>T (p.Arg443Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant creates a cryptic 5 donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251440 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1329A>T in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. |
