International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000076836 SCV000108323 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon
Ambry Genetics RCV000128864 SCV000172720 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-08-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.K647* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1939A>T), located in coding exon 11 of the PMS2 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 1939. This changes the amino acid from a lysine to a stop codon within coding exon 11. This mutation has been reported in multiple individuals with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers, several whose tumors demonstrated high microsatellite instability and/or loss of PMS2 staining by immunohistochemistry (Senter L et al. Gastroenterology, 2008 Aug;135:419-28; Vaughn CP et al. Genes Chromosomes Cancer, 2013 Jan;52:107-12; Therkildsen C et al. Eur J Neurol, 2015 Apr;22:717-24; Win AK et al. Fam Cancer, 2015 Dec;14:575-83; Goodenberger ML et al. Genet Med, 2016 Jan;18:13-9; Norquist BM et al. JAMA Oncol, 2016 Apr;2:482-90; Wang Q et al. J Med Genet, 2020 07;57:487-499). In one case control study, this mutation was reported in 2/60,466 breast cancer cases and in 2/53,461 controls (Dorling et al. N Engl J Med. 2021 02;384:428-439). This mutation has also 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.
Invitae RCV000627727 SCV000259395 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2024-01-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys647*) 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 premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 18602922, 23012243, 25856668, 26720728). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91321). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002228187 SCV002511547 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer 2022-04-19 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: PMS2 c.1939A>T (p.Lys647X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250882 control chromosomes. c.1939A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer/Lynch syndrome (example, Senter_2008, Therkildsen_2014, Espenschied_2017). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Multiple 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 pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000076836 SCV004847688 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2019-04-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Lys647X variant in PMS2 has been reported in at least 5 individuals with PMS2-related cancers (Senter 2008, Win 2015, Norquist 2016, Goodenberger 2016). It has also been identified in 1/113618 European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 647, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PMS2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. In addition, this variant was classified as Pathogenic on Sept 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (Variation ID: 91321). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PS4_Supporting.
