Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000251.3(MSH2):​c.1076G>T​(p.Arg359Ile) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/23 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R359S) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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 16 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-47429742-A-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF. No scorers claiming Uncertain. Scorers claiming Benign: max_spliceai.
• PP5: Variant 2-47416429-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-47416429-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1066604.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1066604). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the c.1076 nucleotide in the MSH2 gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28514183; externalcommunication). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MSH2 function (PMID: 33357406). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 359 of the MSH2 protein (p.Arg359Ile). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 6, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. -

The p.R359I variant (also known as c.1076G>T), located in coding exon 6 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1076. The amino acid change results in arginine to isoleucine at codon 359, an amino acid with similar properties. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 6, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. 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 deleterious (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 01;108:163-175). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
