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]

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Arg711X variant has been previously reported in the literature in numerous publications in families with Lynch syndrome (selected publications: Levati 1998, Mangold 2005, Parc 2003, Tanyi 2008). This variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 711, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the MSH2 gene are an established mechanism of Lynch syndrome and this is the type of DNA alteration expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory and others (e.g. c.2152C>T(p.Gln718X), c.2633_2634delA(p.Glu878fsX3), etc.). This variant is absent in 121400 control chromosomes from ExAC. In literature and clinical databases, this variant is reported as a pathogenic variant and is found in several HNPCC families/patients, including one patient with Muir-Torre Syndrome. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases have classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 23, 2021The p.R711* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2131C>T), located in coding exon 13 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2131. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 13. This mutation has been detected in the germline of multiple patients with HNPCC/Lynch syndrome-associated malignancies and several of these individuals had tumors exhibiting a loss of MSH2 on immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or microsatellite instability (Kurzawski G et al.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesApr 30, 2019The MSH2 c.2131C>T; p.Arg711Ter variant (rs63750636) is reported in several individuals with Lynch syndrome and an individual with Muir-Torre syndrome (Rios 2014, Rossi 2017, Schneider 2018, see LOVD InSiGHT link). This variant is classified as pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 90903). It is only observed on one allele in the Genome Aggregation Database, indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant induces an early termination codon and is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic.
