Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Moderate

The NM_000251.3(MSH2):​c.1954C>A​(p.Pro652Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic 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. P652H) has been classified as Likely 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 Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a region_of_interest Interaction with EXO1 (size 70) in uniprot entity MSH2_HUMAN there are 24 pathogenic changes around while only 4 benign (86%) in NM_000251.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-47475220-C-A is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.932

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Sep 06, 2024	The p.P652T variant (also known as c.1954C>A), located in coding exon 12 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1954. The proline at codon 652 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. In a massively parallel cell-based functional assay testing susceptibility to a DNA damaging agent, 6-thioguanine (6-TG), this variant was determined to be functionally neutral (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 Jan;108:163-175). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Dec 11, 2023	This missense variant replaces proline with threonine at codon 652 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). This variant does not impact MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (internally defined LOF score threshold <= -1.32, PMID: 33357406). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). A different variant affecting the same codon, c.1955C>A (p.Pro652His), is considered to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 90823), suggesting that this position is important for the protein function. 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. -

This sequence change replaces proline with threonine at codon 652 of the MSH2 protein (p.Pro652Thr). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between proline and threonine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MSH2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234174). -
