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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-47410205-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-47410205-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 91103.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars. Variant chr2-47410205-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Variant summary: MSH2 c.478C>T (p.Gln160X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251476 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.478C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Muir-Torre syndrome or Lynch syndrome (Mangold_2004, Bonadona_2011, Cornejo_2014, Wischhusen_2019). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One ClinVar submitter (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Muir-Torre syndrome (PMID: 15235030). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91103). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln160*) in the MSH2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

The p.Q160* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.478C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 478. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This mutation was identified in a patient with Muir-Torre syndrome (Mangold E et al. J. Med. Genet., 2004 Jul;41:567-72). 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. -
