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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoNov 03, 2020DNA sequence analysis of the MSH2 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.2178G>C, in exon 13 that results in an amino acid change, p.Met726Ile. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with MSH2-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.005% in the European sub-population (dbSNP rs587782396). The p.Met726Ile change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the MSH2 protein that is known to be functional. The p.Met726Ile substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Met726Ile change remains unknown at this time. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 08, 2023This missense variant replaces methionine with isoleucine at codon 726 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32547938). This variant has been identified in 6/251480 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 05, 2023The p.M726I variant (also known as c.2178G>C), located in coding exon 13 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 2178. The methionine at codon 726 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In a Russian study, this alteration was detected in 2/711 hereditary breast cancer patients and 0/492 healthy controls (Nikitin AG et al. Front Oncol, 2020 May;10:666). In a study of whole-exome sequencing in patients with features of Cowden syndrome (CS) or Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS) and negative PTEN testing, this alteration was identified in 0/87 patients with CS or BRRS and 1/3476 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (Yehia L et al. PLoS Genet, 2018 04;14:e1007352). This alteration was seen in 0/732 breast cancer patients, 0/189 colorectal cancer patients and 1/490 cancer-free elderly controls in a Turkish population (Akcay IM et al. Int J Cancer, 2021 Jan;148:285-295). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
MSH2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 08, 2024The MSH2 c.2178G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met726Ile. This variant has been reported in several individuals with breast cancer (Table S2, Nikitin et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32547938; Table S2, Krivokuca et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34284872; Table S6, Akcay et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32658311). This variant is reported in 0.0053% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and it has been classified as uncertain and likely benign by other institutions in the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142341/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Carcinoma of colon Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MSH2 p.Met726Ile variant was not identified in our literature search, nor was it identified in the dbSNP, NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (Exome Variant Server), Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC), HGMD, COSMIC, “Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database”, “MMR Gene Unclassified Variants Database”, InSiGHT Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, “Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database”, GeneInsight COGR, BIC or UMD. It was identified in Clinvitae (uncertain significance), and ClinVar database (1X classified as a variant of uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics). The p.Met726 residue is conserved in mammals and other organisms and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein, but this information 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 unknown significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthDec 01, 2023This missense variant replaces methionine with isoleucine at codon 726 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32547938). This variant has been identified in 6/251480 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).
