Ambry Genetics | RCV000573666 | SCV000670810 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-03-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.K614R variant (also known as c.1841A>G), located in coding exon 11 of the PMS2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1841. The lysine at codon 614 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was also detected on a 25-gene panel test in a Caucasian woman who was diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50 (Tung N et al. Cancer, 2015 Jan;121:25-33). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and arginine is the reference amino acid in other 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. |

RCV001797751 | SCV000697315 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2021-11-24 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: PMS2 c.1841A>G (p.Lys614Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251450 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1841A>G has been reported in the literature as a VUS in at-least one individual affected with breast cancer referred for multigene panel testing following a previously negative commercial BRCA1/2 analysis (example, Tung_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. |
Invitae | RCV000629879 | SCV000750835 | uncertain significance | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2023-12-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 614 of the PMS2 protein (p.Lys614Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs771892867, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 484288). 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 with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. |

RCV000573666 | SCV001735354 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-11-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces lysine with arginine at codon 614 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 been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627). This variant has been identified in 1/251450 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. |
