Clinical Description OMIM Nicolaides et al. (1994) identified a germline deletion in the PMS2 gene in a patient with a family history of HNPCC. A second deletion was found in the patient's tumor sample. The tumor from this patient exhibited microsatellite ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Heterozygous mutation in the PMS2 gene causes HNPCC4. For a more complete discussion of the molecular genetics of HNPCC4, see 600259.
Population genetics OMIM Among 12 presumably unrelated probands with HNPCC in whom Clendenning et al. (2008) identified a heterozygous insertion/deletion mutation in the PMS2 gene (600259.0015), family history suggested reduced penetrance. Mean age at diagnosis among probands was 52 years. Haplotype ...
