Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points: 6P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_Moderate
The NM_000251.3(MSH2):āc.1217G>Cā(p.Arg406Pro) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,782 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R406L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.
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]
