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]

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

This variant is denoted MSH2 c.421A>G at the cDNA level, p.Met141Val (M141V) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Methionine to a Valine (ATG>GTG). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. The International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours Incorporated (InSiGHT) classifies this variant as being of uncertain significance based on insufficient evidence (Thompson 2014). MSH2 Met141Val was observed at an allele frequency of 0.08% (24/30780) in individuals of South Asian ancestry in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the Connector domain (Lutzen 2008, Kansikas 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH2 Met141Val is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
