Genes affected
MSH2 (HGNC:7325): (mutS homolog 2) This locus is frequently mutated in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC). When cloned, it was discovered to be a human homolog of the E. coli mismatch repair gene mutS, consistent with the characteristic alterations in microsatellite sequences (RER+ phenotype) found in HNPCC. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2012]

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, 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. -

The p.Thr8Met variant has been identified in 7/4128 proband chromsomes in individuals with Lynch syndrome, and was also identified in 2/200 control chromosomes (Ali 2012, Chao 2008, Mangold 2005, Nomura 2000, Valentin 2011, Wang 2006, Wei 2011), increasing the likelihood that this is a benign variant. The variant has also been reported in the HGMD, LOVD and several colon cancer databases, some of which suggest that it is probably neutral. It is listed in the dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#: rs17217716) with a MAF score of 0.008 (1000 Genomes) and it is observed at low frequency in the Han Chinese and Japanese HapMap population samples, increasing the likelihood this variant may be a common low frequency variant with no clinical significance. The p.Thr8 residue is conserved across mammals but computational analyses (SIFT, AlignGVGD) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, 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 Predicted Benign. -
