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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 9 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-47482800-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-47482800-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 433904.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr2-47482800-G-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the MSH2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu888Cysfs*4) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9222765, 9774676, 17531815, 18822302; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 433904). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 27413415). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu886*) in the MSH2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 49 amino acid(s) of the MSH2 protein. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.E886* variant (also known as c.2656G>T), located in coding exon 16 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2656. This changes the amino acid from a glutamic acid to a stop codon within coding exon 16. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theMSH2 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 49 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, and a significant portion of the protein is affected. This variant was reported to co-segregate with disease in a family that met Amsterdam II criteria for Lynch syndrome, and several family members had tumors that demonstrated loss of both MSH2/MSH6 protein expression (Rashid MU et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2016 Jul;14:14; Rashid MU et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2019 Oct;17:29). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
