Ambry Genetics RCV000165585 SCV000216319 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-08-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.164-1G>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 3 of the PMS2 gene. This alteration is detected in several individuals whose colorectal or endometrial tumors demonstrated loss of PMS2 expression on immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Ambry internal data). This alteration is also detected in an individual diagnosed with colorectal cancer at 45, and an individual diagnosed with endometrial cancer at 55 with demonstrated high microsatellite instability; however, the IHC results for the endometrial cancer demonstrated loss of MSH6 expression and were non-interpretable for PMS2 (Goodenberger ML et al. Genet Med, 2016 Jan;18:13-9; Wang Q et al. J Med Genet, 2020 07;57:487-499). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). In addition to the clinical data, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation.
GeneDx RCV000484767 SCV000572224 likely pathogenic not provided 2023-06-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Canonical splice site variant predicted to disrupt splicing in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Published RNA studies suggest this variant results in use of a cryptic splice site and an aberrant transcript which is predicted to lead to a frameshift (Ryu et al., 2020); Identified in patients tested at GeneDx and in published literature with Lynch syndrome-related cancer and tumors demonstrating microsatellite instability and/or loss of PMS2 staining; some individuals also harbored a second PMS2 pathogenic variant in cis (Goodenberger et al., 2016; Ryu et al., 2020; Wang et al., 2020); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25856668, 11574484, 34172528, 32761968, 31802016, 31992580)

Invitae RCV000792721 SCV000932033 likely pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-10-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 2 of the PMS2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is present in population databases (rs763308607, gnomAD 0.006%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25856668, 31992580). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186061). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000576564 SCV004019853 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 4 2023-04-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000165585 SCV004359711 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-08-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant causes a G to C nucleotide substitution at the -1 position of intron 2 of the PMS2 gene. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes a partial deletion of exon 3, resulting in premature truncation (PMID: 32761968). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25856668, 31992580; ClinVar SCV000216319.6, SCV000572224.5). This variant has been identified in 1/248116 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of PMS2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
