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 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-47403343-T-TG is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-47403343-T-TG is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 455505.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). This sequence change inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 1 of the MSH2 mRNA (c.153dupG), causing a frameshift at codon 52. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu52Alafs*30) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.153dupG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a duplication of G at nucleotide position 153, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L52Afs*30). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
