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:2Benign:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamine with arginine at codon 252 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 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 an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627). This variant has been identified in 1/251402 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.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The MSH2 c.755A>G (p.Gln252Arg) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with breast cancer as well as in unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)). Additionally, a functional study suggests that the variant is not damaging to protein function (PMID: 33357406 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251402 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant.
