Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points: 2P and 5B. PM2BP4_StrongBP6
The NM_000251.3(MSH2):c.1760-4A>G variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,460,438 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).
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]
Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.8).
BP6
Variant 2-47475021-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-47475021-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 414987.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=3, Uncertain_significance=1}.

The c.1760-4A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution 4 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 12 in the MSH2 gene. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
