RCV000589847 | SCV000697380 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2016-05-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: c.804-10T>G in PMS2 gene is an intronic change that involves a non-conserved nucleotide. 3/5 programs in Alamut predict this variant to generate an alternative cryptic site, however no functional studies supporting this notion were published at the time of evaluation. The variant is absent from the control population dataset of ExAC but was identified in 1 NHPCC with isolated loss on PMS2 staining. The variant of interest has been cited by reputable databases/clinical laboratory as VUS. Taking together the variant was classified as VUS until additional information becomes available. |
Invitae | RCV000630112 | SCV000751068 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2023-11-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change falls in intron 7 of the PMS2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the PMS2 protein. RNA analysis indicates that this variant induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 18602922; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91370). Studies have shown that this variant 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. |
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | RCV000589847 | SCV001134615 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2023-03-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome associated tumors (PMID: 18602922 (2008)). RNA studies have shown that this variant causes abnormal splicing. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on PMS2 mRNA splicing yielded inconclusive findings . Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV002408601 | SCV002675558 | likely pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-08-28 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.804-10T>G intronic variant results from a T to G substitution 10 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 8 in the PMS2 gene. This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumors demonstrated isolated loss of PMS2 staining on immunohistochemistry (Ambry internal data; Senter L et al. Gastroenterology, 2008 Aug;135:419-28). This nucleotide position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. 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. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. |
