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]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 14, 2023Variant summary: MSH2 c.2732T>G (p.Leu911Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Helix-turn-helix domain (aa 856-934) (Houlleberghs_2016) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251846 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00014 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MSH2 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (6.8e-05 vs 0.00057), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2732T>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colon cancer (e.g. Loader_2002, Barnetson_2008, Ghazani_2017, Raskin_2017), in a patient with ovarian cancer (Pal_2012), and in a patient with endometrial and breast cancer (Singh_2020). The variant was also found in unaffected individuals (Karageorgos_2015, Arora_2015). One of these studies reported the variant not to segregate with the disease in a family (Barnetson_2008). At least one publication reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and showed no damaging effect for this variant on MMR activity in mouse embryonic stem cells (Houlleberghs_2016). An additional sstudy reported the vairant to be neutral using a combination of deep mutational scanning with established MMR assay (Jia_2021). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 18033691, 23047549, 26092435, 26951660, 26344056, 29212164, 28125075, 12537652, 32634176, 33357406). 13 submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Multiple submitters reported the variant with conflicting assessments ranging from VUS to likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 29, 2020Published functional studies demonstrate no damaging effect: variant did not result in 6TG-resistant colony formation, suggesting it does not affect mismatch repair function (Houlleberghs 2016); Observed in individuals with colon or epithelial ovarian cancer (Loader 2002, Barnetson 2008, Pal 2012, Ghazani 2017, Raskin 2017); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29684080, 22949387, 16379545, 18033691, 23047549, 12537652, 26092435, 26333163, 19389263, 21153778, 28125075, 26951660, 29212164, 29641532, 32634176) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJul 23, 2022This variant has not been described in online databases. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00013 (17/128602 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with endometrial cancer (PMID: 32634176 (2020)), colon cancer (PMID: 29212164 (2017), 28125075 (2017, 12537652 (2002)), and ovarian cancer (PMID: 23047549 (2012)). Although one study observed high microsatellite instability in a tumor and described this variant as deleterious, another study described this variant as benign because of a lack of co-segregation with disease (PMID: 12537652 (2002) and 18033691 (2008)). A mouse embryonic stem cell based functional study reported that this variant does not have a deleterious effect on MMR activity (PMID: 26951660 (2016), 33357406 (2021)). 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. -
MSH2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 10, 2024The MSH2 c.2732T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu911Arg. This variant has been previously reported in individuals with colorectal cancer (Barnetson et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18033691; Table S1, Raskin et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29212164), endometrial cancer (Singh et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32634176), and ovarian cancer (Pal et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23047549). Functional studies did not support the pathogenicity of this variant (Figure S7, Houlleberghs et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26951660; LOF score <0 in Table S4, Jia et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33357406). This variant is reported in 0.013% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from likely benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/91039/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Carcinoma of colon Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MSH2 p.Leu911Arg variant was identified in 2 of 5650 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0004) from individuals or families with lynch syndrome or ovarian cancer and was identified in 1 of 1140 control chromosomes (freq: 0.001), from healthy individuals (Barnetson 2008, Pal 2012, Karageorgos 2015). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs41295182) as "With other allele ", ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, GeneDx, Pathway Genomics, Counsyl, InSight and two clinical laboratories; as likely benign by Ambry Genetics), Clinvitae, MutDB, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and Insight Hereditary Tumors (6x class3). The variant was not identified in the COGR, Cosmic, UMD-LSDB, or Zhejiang University databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 17 of 275962 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 23976 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), European in 16 of 126192 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001); but not observed in the Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Leu911 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalDec 02, 2020The MSH2 c.2732T>G (p.Leu911Arg) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.013% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-47710015-T-G). Six of seven in silico tools predict a damaging effect of this variant on protein function (PP3). However, a functional assay demonstrated that this variant did not result in 6TG-resistant colony formation, an indicator of mismatch repair activity, suggesting a likely benign effect (PMID: 26951660). This variant has been identified in at least four individuals with colon cancer (PMID: 12537652, 18033691, 23047549, 28125075, 29212164), one individual with endometrial cancer (PMID: 32634176), one individual with epithelial ovarian cancer (PMID: 23047549). In one of these studies, the variant did not segregate with the cancer phenotype within the proband’s family (PMID: 18033691). Another report indicates the presence of the variant in 7 individuals in a cancer-free pedigree on both sides of the family with no mention of consanguinity (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26092435/). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance. -
