Ambry Genetics RCV000221410 SCV000278764 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-05-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.389-1G>C intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to C substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 5 of the MUTYH gene. This alteration has been identified as homozygous and in conjunction with other common pathogenic MUTYH mutations in multiple patients with 30-100 colorectal adenomas (Isidro G et al. Hum. Mutat. 2004 Oct;24:353-4; Torrezan GT et al. Orphanet J Rare Dis. 2013 Apr;8:54; Filipe B et al. Clin. Genet. 2009 Sep;76:242-55; Ambry internal data). 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; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Of note, this alteration is also designated c.347-1G>C in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation.
Invitae RCV000230931 SCV000285947 pathogenic Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 2024-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the MUTYH gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and likely results in the loss of 4 amino acid residue(s), but is expected to preserve the integrity of the reading-frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal polyposis (PMID: 15366000, 17949294, 23561487; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.347-1G>C. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234229). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in the activation of a cryptic splice site in exon 5 (Invitae). This variant disrupts a region of the MUTYH protein in which other variant(s) (p.Trp131Arg) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12853198, 19032956, 19394335, 19732775, 25820570, 26681312; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000221410 SCV000685623 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-11-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant causes a G to C nucleotide substitution at the -1 position of intron 4 splice acceptor site of the MUTYH gene. This variant is also known as c.347-1G>C based on the NM_001048171.1 transcript. Although RNA studies have not been reported, this variant is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with adenomatous polyposis in compound heterozygous state with pathogenic mutations (PMID: 12853198, 15366000, 17949294, 19032956, 19732775, 19793053, 23561487). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Different variants affecting the same splice acceptor site, c.389-1G>A and c.389-2A>G, are known to be disease-causing (Clinvar variation ID: 186819 and 215998). Loss of MUTYH function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000230931 SCV000697693 pathogenic Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 2016-10-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The MUTYH c.389-1G>C variant involves the alteration of a conserved intronic nucleotide. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict that this variant abolishes the 3' splicing acceptor site in intron 4. This variant is absent in 121386 control chromosomes, however, has been reported in numerous MAP patients. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic.

Division of Medical Genetics, University of Washington RCV000230931 SCV001424796 pathogenic Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 2019-08-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.389-1G>C variant is predicted to lead to either nonsense-mediated mRNA decay or an abnormal protein product by destroying a canonical splice acceptor site. Loss-of-function variants in MUTYH are known to be pathogenic (Ali 2008, Nielsen 2011). The c.389-1G>C variant is not present in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with MAP who are either homozygous or compound heterozygous for a second MUTYH pathogenic variant (Isidro 2004, Olschwang 2007, Torrezan 2013). Thus, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001353991 SCV000592682 pathogenic Carcinoma of colon no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The c.389-1G>C variant was identified in 3 of 152 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.020) from Portuguese and Brazilian individuals or families with MAP/AFAP/FAP (Isidro 2004, Torrezan 2013); however, control chromosomes were not evaluated in these studies. The c.389-1G>C variant was not identified in dbSNP, NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), database MutDB, “Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database”, the ClinVar database, GeneInsight VariantWire database, and COSMIC. The variant was identified in UMD (12x as a Causal variant), with co-occurring pathogenic MUTYH variants (including: c.494A>G and c.1145G>A). The c.389-1G>C variant is predicted to cause abnormal splicing because the nucleotide substitution occurs in the invariant region of the splice consensus sequence and this variant is the type of which could be expected to cause the disorder. In addition, 5 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
