Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 0P and 3B. BP4_ModerateBP6
The NM_000251.3(MSH2):c.2537A>G(p.Gln846Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000223 in 1,614,078 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Q846H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not specified Uncertain:3Benign:1
The p.Gln846Arg variant in MSH2 has not been previously reported in individuals with colorectal cancer. This variant has been identified in 3/10406 African chro mosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.or g; dbSNP rs140754514). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Gln846Arg variant may not impact the protein, though this inf ormation is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, the cli nical significance of the p.Gln846Arg variant is uncertain. -

Variant summary: MSH2 c.2537A>G (p.Gln846Arg) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 251440 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MSH2 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (5.6e-05 vs 0.00057), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2537A>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cancer, without strong evidence for causality (Gordon_2019, Li_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31422818, 31391288). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182585). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Lynch syndrome 1 Uncertain:2Benign:1
- -
This variant is considered benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726]. This variant has been observed at a population frequency that is significantly greater than expected given the associated disease prevalence and penetrance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2
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. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Benign:1

Hereditary cancer Benign:1
This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following: it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease, and/or has normal protein function, and/or has lack of segregation with disease, and/or has been detected in co-occurrence with known pathogenic variant, and/or has lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or is located in a region inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
