Genetic Variant MSH4:p.Thr56Arg (chr1-75797152-C-G) – ACMG Classification: Uncertain_significance (2 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2

The NM_002440.4(MSH4):c.167C>G(p.Thr56Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000753 in 1,460,916 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. T56M) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

MSH4 (HGNC:7327): (mutS homolog 4) This gene encodes a member of the DNA mismatch repair mutS family. This member is a meiosis-specific protein that is not involved in DNA mismatch correction, but is required for reciprocal recombination and proper segregation of homologous chromosomes at meiosis I. This protein and MSH5 form a heterodimer which binds uniquely to a Holliday Junction and its developmental progenitor, thus provoking ADP-ATP exchange, and stabilizing the interaction between parental chromosomes during meiosis double-stranded break repair.

The c.167C>G (p.T56R) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the MSH4 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 167, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 56 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
