Ambry Genetics | RCV000570231 | SCV000663467 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-09-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.M837I variant (also known as c.2511G>A), located in coding exon 15 of the PMS2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2511. The methionine at codon 837 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well 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 | RCV001352496 | SCV001547049 | uncertain significance | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2020-09-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces methionine with isoleucine at codon 837 of the PMS2 protein (p.Met837Ile). The methionine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between methionine and isoleucine. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases (ExAC) is considered unreliable due to the presence of homologous sequence, such as pseudogenes or paralogs, in the genome. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with PMS2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480312). 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. 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. |
