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]

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

To our knowledge, this sequence variant has not been previously reported in the literature. This variant has an overall allele frequency of 0.00007072 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser; however, this variant has only been observed in individuals with East Asian ancestry at an allele frequency of 0.001002 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico tools evaluating evolutionary conservation and impact on protein structure and function are mixed with regards to the effect of this variant and there are no functional studies to verify or refute these predictions. Therefore, we interpret this variant as a variant of uncertain significance. (No codes) -

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. -

The MSH2 p.Gln374Arg variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the following databases: COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, UMD-LSDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, or Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs749660228) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, Color Genomics Inc. and GeneDx), Clinvitae (2x), and in control databases in 21 of 277204 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the East Asian population in 21 of 18868 chromosomes (freq: 0.001); it was not observed in the African, “Other”, Latino, European Non-Finnish, Ashkenazi Jewish, European Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Gln374 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms however four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood the variant Arg impacts the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

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

Variant summary: MSH2 c.1121A>G (p.Gln374Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251398 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00092 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.62 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH2 causing Lynch Syndrome phenotype (0.00057), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. c.1121A>G has been reported in the literature in a cohort of colorectal cancer patients without strong evidence for causality (Toh_2018). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Three classified as VUS while one classified as likley benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
