Ambry Genetics RCV000129507 SCV000184280 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-05-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
Invitae RCV000467096 SCV000545750 uncertain significance Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 2024-02-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 307 of the MUTYH protein (p.Arg307Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs140156029, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer or an unspecified cancer (PMID: 25186627, 28873162). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141135). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The glutamine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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.
GeneDx RCV000586807 SCV000567604 uncertain significance not provided 2022-03-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; In silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, suggests this variant may impact gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; Observed in individuals with breast cancer and advanced cancer of unspecified type (Tung 2015, Mandelker 2017); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28944238, 11092888, 11160897, 16879101, 20816984, 28873162, 25186627)
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000586807 SCV000601661 uncertain significance not provided 2023-01-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00024 (6/24920 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in an individual with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627 (2015)) or unspecified cancer (PMID: 28873162 (2017)). The variant has also been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMID: 30267214 (2018), 28944238 (2017)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000484904 SCV000697713 uncertain significance not specified 2022-05-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MUTYH c.920G>A (p.Arg307Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 251290 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MUTYH causing MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (7.6e-05 vs 0.0046), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.920G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing in individuals affected with breast cancer/unspecified advanced cancer (e.g. Mandelker_2017, Tung_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with MUTYH-Associated Polyposis. A co-occurrence with a pathogenic variant has been observed at our laboratory (BRCA1 c.2457delC, p.Asp821fsX25; Internal testing). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (VUS, n=4; Likely benign, n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital RCV000467096 SCV004171501 uncertain significance Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 2023-10-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The MUTYH c.920G>A (p.Arg307Gln) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.024% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with MUTYH-associated polyposis. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance.
