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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthFeb 28, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 96 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant does not impact MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (internally defined LOF score threshold <= -1.32, PMID: 33357406). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Extramammary Paget disease (PMID: 27487738) and breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 32068069). This variant has been identified in 3/282534 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 21, 2021The p.R96C variant (also known as c.286C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 286. The arginine at codon 96 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was identified as a germline alteration in 1/172 individuals with extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) (Kang Z et al. Am. J. Surg. Pathol. 2016 Nov;40:1517-1525). This alteration has also been reported in an individual affected with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (Cremin C et al. Cancer Med, 2020 06;9:4004-4013). In a massively parallel cell-based functional assay testing susceptibility to a DNA damaging agent, 6-thioguanine (6-TG), this variant was reported to be functionally neutral (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 01;108:163-175). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 26, 2019Variant summary: MSH2 c.286C>T (p.Arg96Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the N-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251282 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.286C>T has been reported in the literature in one individual affected with Extramammary Paget Disease (EMPD; Kang_2016). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar (after 2014) and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
