Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -18 ACMG points: 2P and 20B. PM1BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBA1

The NM_000251.3(MSH2):​c.380A>G​(p.Asn127Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0042 in 1,613,580 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 243 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Benign (★★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Benign in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N127D) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

The p.Asn127Ser variant in MSH2 is classified as benign because it has been identified in 7.8% (1942/24960) of African chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant was classified as Benign on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (Variation ID 36577). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BA1.

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign.

The MSH2 p.Asn127Ser variant was identified in the literature in black, white and Hispanic populations with functional studies suggesting that the p.Asn127Ser variant, in isolation, does not compromise MMR. However in 2 studies, this variant was identified together with other missense substitutions (especially p.Ala328Pro), and demonstrated significantly decreased repair deficiency (Kantelinen 2012, Ollila 2008, Samowitz 2001). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs17217772) “With benign, uncertain significance allele” and is listed in the 1000 Genomes Project in 124 of 5000 chromosomes (frequency: 0.0248). The variant is also identified in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) in 4 of 8600 European American (frequency: 00005) and in 339 of 4406 African American alleles (frequency: 0.077). The variant is listed in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database (released Mar 14, 2016) and identified in 848 of 121398 chromosomes of which 27 were homozygous (frequency: 0.007) or 791 of 10402 Africans (frequency: 0.076), 20 of 11578 Latino (frequency: 0.002), 29 of 66732 European (Non-Finish) (frequency: 0.0004), 4 of 16510 South Asian (frequency: 0.0002) and 4 in 908 (frequency: 0.004) in other, increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant. The variant is listed in GeneInsight - COGR (1x as benign by LMM and 2x as benign by ARUP); ClinVar (listed as benign by InSIGHT, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Emory Genetics, Ambry Genetics, Mayo Clinic, Pathway Genomics LabCorp and by TMI with no clinical significance given); in Clinvitae (by EmyClass 1x as benign) and InSiGHT Colon Cancer Gene Variant Databases (LOVD) 34x as Class 1 - not pathogenic. In UMD, the variant was identified 23x as neutral with a co-occurring pathogenic MLH1 p.Pro649LeufsX12, increasing the likelihood that the p.Asn127Ser variant does not have clinical significance. The p.Asn127 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the p.Asn127Ser variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict the abolishment of the consensus splice site; however, HumanSpliceFinder and MaxEntScan predict an altered 3' splice site in this region and we cannot eliminate the possibility of a novel cryptic splice site. 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.

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.
