Ambry Genetics | RCV001025973 | SCV001188265 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2022-06-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.705+1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 6 of the PMS2 gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to result in aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). The resulting transcript is predicted to be in-frame and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). The exact functional effect of the altered amino acid sequence is unknown; however, the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). Based on an internal structural analysis, the resulting predicted transcript would substantially disrupt the structure of the PMS2 ATPase domain (Guarné A et al. EMBO J, 2001 Oct;20:5521-31; Ambry internal data). In addition, this variant has been identified in probands whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated high microsatellite instability and loss of PMS2 expression by immunohistochemistry (Clendenning M et al. Hum. Mutat., 2006 May;27:490-5; Senter L et al. Gastroenterology, 2008 Aug;135:419-28; Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. |

RCV001380258 | SCV001578254 | pathogenic | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2022-08-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 6 of the PMS2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and 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). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site is associated with altered splicing resulting in multiple RNA products (PMID: 23629955). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91364). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 16619239, 18602922). |

RCV003452995 | SCV004187650 | likely pathogenic | Lynch syndrome 4 | 2023-09-19 | 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. |
