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]

Carcinoma of colon Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MSH2 p.Glu48X variant was identified in two reports, as a truncating mutation in endometrial cancer (Berends 2001), and as resulting in a loss of protein by immunohistochemistry in a patient with Lynch syndrome (Zahary 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs63750615) “With pathogenic allele”, “Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database”, InSiGHT Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, and “the ClinVar database (classified as a pathogenic variant by an expert panel). The variant was not found in the following databases: NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database, Clinvitae database, COSMIC, “MMR Gene Unclassified Variants Database”, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database”, GeneInsight COGR database, and UMD. The p.Glu48X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 48, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the MSH2 gene are an established mechanism of disease in Lynch syndrome and this is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 04, 2023This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 19419416, 20587412, 22371642). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90662). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu48*) in the MSH2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 21, 2022The p.E48* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.142G>T), located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 142. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 1. This alteration has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with MSH2-related disease (Ambry internal data). This mutation has been identified in numerous Lynch syndrome families to date (Tang R et al. Clin. Genet., 2009 Apr;75:334-45; Berends MJ et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2001 May;92:398-403; Sjursen W et al. J. Med. Genet., 2010 Sep;47:579-85; Zahary MN et al. World J. Gastroenterol., 2012 Feb;18:814-20). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
