Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2 PM5

The NM_000251.3(MSH2):​c.181C>G​(p.Gln61Glu) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. 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. Q61P) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

MSH2 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-47403373-A-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces glutamine with glutamic acid at codon 61 of the MSH2 protein (p.Gln61Glu). The glutamine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between glutamine and glutamic acid. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH2-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The p.Q61E variant (also known as c.181C>G), located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 181. The glutamine at codon 61 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by MAPP-MMR in silico analyses (Chao EC et al. Hum. Mutat. 2008 Jun;29:852-60). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
