Description
The PMS2 p.Leu85= variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Genesight-COGR, Cosmic, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs200491279) “With Likely benign allele”, ClinVar (as benign by GeneDx, and likely benign by Ambry Genetics, Invitae and Color Genomics Inc.), Clinvitae (3x), and in control databases in 49 of 269350 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017) being identified in the following populations: Other in 1 of 6368 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0002), Latino in 2 of 34332 chromosomes (frequency: 0.00006), European Non-Finnish in 45 of 123320 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0004) and in South Asian in 1 of 30744 chromosomes (frequency: 0.00003). The p.Leu85 variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign.
