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.2038C>G at the cDNA level, p.Arg680Gly (R680G) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Glycine (CGA>GGA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH2 Arg680Gly was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). Since Arginine and Glycine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. MSH2 Arg680Gly is located in the ATPase domain (L?tzen 2008, Kansikas 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH2 Arg680Gly is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: The MSH2 c.2038C>G (p.Arg680Gly) variant located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (via InterPro) involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide and 4/4 in silico tools (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index) predict a damaging outcome. However, these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed.. This variant was found in 2/121304 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000165, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic MSH2 variant (0.0005683). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications. Because of the absence of clinical information and the lack of functional studies, the variant is classified as a "Variant of Uncertain Significance (VUS)," until additional information becomes available. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MSH2 c.2038C>G (p.Arg680Gly) variant has not been reported in individuals with MSH2-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00011 (4/35434 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with glycine at codon 680 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 been identified in 5/282826 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. -

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
