RCV000034682 | SCV000211411 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2024-06-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Observed with MUTYH European founder variants, phase unknown, in individuals with phenotypes consistent with MAP at this laboratory and in the published literature as well as in individuals without MAP at an outside laboratory (PMID: 19394335; ClinVar); Identified as homozygous in two individuals with colorectal cancer whose tumors demonstrated a mutational signature profile which was apparently not characteristic of biallelic MUTYH inactivation (PMID: 35668106); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Also known as Arg295Cys (c.883C>T), Arg281Cys (c.841C>T), and Arg306Cys (c.916C>T); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23507534, 24252905, 16408224, 22297469, 16557584, 20848659, 25820570, 25980754, 21235684, 27829682, 31159747, 25318351, 22703879, 12606733, 12707038, 17949294, 19032956, 19732775, 26377631, 19394335, 27696107, 23605219, 27153395, 28087410, 28108460, 19527492, 15465463, 29684080, 32615015, 34426522, 33471991, 28135145, 28726808, 35545820, 35668106, 35534704, 34326862, Bayraktar2023[article], 20816984, 16879101, 11160897, 11092888, 37937776) |

RCV000198445 | SCV000254716 | uncertain significance | Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 | 2022-11-02 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 309 of the MUTYH protein (p.Arg309Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs138089183, gnomAD 0.09%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with denomatous polyps and colorectal cancer, and breast cancer (PMID: 12606733, 12707038, 16408224, 16557584, 17949294, 19032956, 19394335, 19732775, 22297469; 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.883C>T (Arg295Cys) and c.841C>T (Arg281Cys). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41765). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect MUTYH function (PMID: 20848659, 26377631). 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. |
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano | RCV000034682 | SCV000601662 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2023-08-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), 31159747 (2019)), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 28726808 (2018)), colorectal cancer (PMID: 28135145 (2017), 16408224 (2006), 12707038 (2003) 12606733 (2003)), MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) (PMID: 19732775 (2009)), and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) (PMID: 17949294 (2007)). Additionally, this variant has been observed in unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), 22703879 (2012)). Functional studies have reported conflicting accounts that this variant has no effect or a partial defect on MUTYH glycosylase activity and function (PMID: 20848659 (2010), 26377631 (2015), and 25820570 (2015)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.001 (52/50772 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. |

RCV000212709 | SCV000697714 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2024-08-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: MUTYH c.925C>T (p.Arg309Cys) results in a non-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 0.0007 in 1617344 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MUTYH causing MUTYH-Associated Polyposis (0.0007 vs 0.0046), allowing no conclusion about variant significance.c.925C>T has been reported in the literature among individuals affected with APC-negative adenomatous polyposis, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, with personal/family history of breast cancer, or with other tumor phenotypes without strong evidence for causality (e.g. Bhai_2021, deOliveira_2022, Bedics_2022, Aretz_2006, Niessen_2006, Halford_2003, Calvello_2023, Martin_2024). Thus, these report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with MUTYH-associated Polyposis. Several publications have reported conflicting experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. Multiple studies showed discordant results for adenine glycosylase activity with values similar to the wild-type enzyme (Goto_2010) while another report demonstrated low fractions of active enzyme, compromised affinity for damaged DNA and reduced rates for adeninine excision (Brinkmeyer_2015). The variant did not affect binding of MUTYH with the Hus1 subunit of the 9-1-1 heterotrimeric complex, Rad9-Hus1-Rad1, which is thought to stimulate the glycosylase activity of the protein (Brinkmeyer_2015). Lastly, a complementation assay evaluating the functional deficiency in the E Coli by monitoring spontaneous mutation rates showed a partially defective activity (Komine_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15465463, 34326862, 32615015, 31159747, 27829682, 28726808, 28135145, 27153395, 27696107, 12606733, 12707038, 35534704, 35545820, 19732775, 19032956, 17949294, 26377631, 16557584, 16408224, 25820570, 22297469, 22703879, 20848659, 37239438, 38566764). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41765). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance |

RCV000198445 | SCV001255471 | uncertain significance | Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 | 2018-03-08 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. |

RCV000198445 | SCV002012379 | uncertain significance | Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 | 2021-08-10 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The MUTYH c.925C>T (p.Arg309Cys) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.091% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-45797846-G-A). Both in silico tools and functional assays are not in agreement about the effect of this variant on protein function. Functional studies have demonstrated a significant decrease in enzyme activity, impaired binding affinity to damaged DNA, and reduced rates of base excision repair (PMID: 26377631), as well as glycosylase activity similar to the wildtype (PMID: 20848659). A complementation assay evaluating functional deficiency in E.coli showed partially defective activity based on spontaneous mutation rates (PMID: 25820570). This variant has been reported in one individual with 10-20 colorectal polyps at age 58 and without colorectal cancer who was compound heterozygous for this variant and the pathogenic p.Tyr179Cys (PM3; PMID: 19732775). It has also been reported in individuals with MUTYH-associated polyposis or referred for cancer genetic testing (PMID: 19032956, 27153395, 31159747) as well as in control individuals (PMID: 22703879). This variant is also known as c.883C>T (Arg295Cys) and c.841C>T (Arg281Cys) in the literature. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PM3. |

RCV000212709 | SCV002067665 | uncertain significance | not specified | 2021-11-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | DNA sequence analysis of the MUTYH gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.925C>T, in exon 10 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg309Cys. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.09% in the European population (dbSNP rs138089183). The p.Arg309Cys change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the MUTYH protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Arg309Cys substitution. The c.925C>T sequence change has been identified in individuals with colorectal polyps and/or colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 19732775; 19527492, 27829682). Out et al., 2012, identified the p.Arg309Cys change in individuals with a personal and/or family history of breast cancer and in controls, without a statistically significant difference in the rates of detection between the two populations (PMID: 22297469). In vitro analyses of the p.Arg309Cys change have shown contradictory results. Goto et al., 2010, demonstrated that the variant retains normal glycosylase activity in vitro (PMID: 20848659). However, Brinkmeyer et al., 2015, and Komine et al., 2015, performed in vitro assays that demonstrated significant decreases in enzyme activity, binding activity to damaged DNA, and defective base excision repair activity (PMIDs: 26377631, 25820570). Due to these contrasting evidences, the clinical significance of the p.Arg309Cys change remains unknown at this time. |

RCV004528164 | SCV000806370 | uncertain significance | MUTYH-related disorder | 2024-08-19 | no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | The MUTYH c.925C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg309Cys. This variant has been identified in individuals with adenomatous polyposis and/or colorectal cancer; in some individuals a second MUTYH variant was also reported or an additional missense variant in PALB2 was identified (Supplementary Table 1, Jones et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19394335; Supplementary Table 1, Vogt et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19732775; Nielsen et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19032956; Sieber et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12606733; Table 2, Aretz et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16557584; Subject 1095188515, Table S2, Yurgelun et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25980754). At least one study identified this variant in individuals with a history of breast cancer, but also at an equal frequency in the unaffected control cohort (Out et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22297469). Functional studies are conflicting regarding this variant’s impact on MUTYH function. Some studies have revealed this variant does not impact MUTYH glycosylase function in vitro (Table 1, Goto et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20848659), while others have reported a decrease in enzyme activity, binding activity to damaged DNA, and impaired base excision repair activity (Komine et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25820570; Brinkmeyer and David. 2015. PubMed ID: 26377631). This variant has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from benign to uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/41765/). This variant is reported in 0.091% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. |

RCV000198445 | SCV001553145 | uncertain significance | Familial adenomatous polyposis 2 | no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | The MUTYH p.Arg309Cys variant was identified in 11 of 6552 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with MAP, colorectal cancer, or breast cancer and was present in 9 of 3332 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.003) from healthy individuals (Aretz 2006, Halford 2003, Jones 2009, Nielsen 2009, Olschwang 2007, Out 2012, Rohlin 2017, Sieber 2003, Vogt 2009). Note that the variant was identified as c.883C>T (NM_001048171.1), p.Arg295Cys (NP_001041636.1) and p.Arg281Cys (NP_001041638.1) in the literature (Goto 2010, Komine 2015, Brinkmeyer 2015). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs138089183) as "With Uncertain significance allele", and in ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Ambry Genetics; as uncertain significance by GeneDx, Invitae, and three clinical laboratories). The variant was not identified in COGR, Cosmic, or the UMD-LSDB database. The variant was identified in control databases in 129 of 277082 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0005 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 24006 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), Other in 5 of 6466 chromosomes (freq: 0.0008), Latino in 4 of 34414 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European in 115 of 126606 chromosomes (freq: 0.0009), Finnish in 3 of 25792 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), and South Asian in 1 of 30780 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003); it was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, or East Asian populations. The p.Arg309 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant exhibited low levels of active enzyme (5%) compared to WT MUTYH and displayed a significant decrease in substrate binding affinity relative to the WT enzyme (Brinkmeyer 2015). In addition, in an in vitro glycosylase assay two studies displayed the variant having normal glycosylase activity (Goto 2010, Komine 2015) but a third showed that glycosylase activity was less efficient (Brinkmeyer 2015). In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. | |
