Lynch syndrome 1 Pathogenic:2
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant is strongly associated with more severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals with pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726]. -

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: increased mutation rate, impaired interaction with MSH6, and impaired mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency when compared to controls (PMID: 23690608, 28422960, 33357406); Observed in individuals with endometrial or colorectal cancer, with studied tumors demonstrating microsatellite instability (MSI) or absence of MSH2 expression on immunohistochemistry referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in published literature (PMID: 11606497, 18931482, 20052760, 19731080, 26248088); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20052760, 18931482, 22290698, 23760103, 11606497, 26552419, 26248088, 24362816, 26078562, 19062740, 28422960, 25980754, 36550560, 27363726, 18383312, 19731080, 23690608, 31615790, 31830689, 18822302, 21120944, 33357406) -
In the published literature, the variant has been reported in multiple individuals with Lynch syndrome and MSH2-associated cancers (PMID: 11606497 (2001), 18931482 (2008), 19731080 (2010), 26248088 (2015)). A functional study showed the variant caused significantly reduced DNA mismatch repair activity and MSH2 protein expression in vitro (PMID: 23690608 (2013)). This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is located in a potentially critical protein domain. Therefore, the variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: MSH2 c.2047G>A (p.Gly683Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251470 control chromosomes. c.2047G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (Sheng_2008, Samowitz_2001, Coolbaugh-Murphy_2010, Jasperson_2010). Experimental studies have shown the variant to result in deficient repair activity in in vitro MMR complementation assay (Drost_2013). Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 683 of the MSH2 protein (p.Gly683Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of MSH2-related conditions (PMID: 11606497, 18931482, 19731080, 26248088; internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this MSH2 variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 1,370,736 individuals referred to our laboratory for MSH2 testing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90868). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MSH2 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MSH2 function (PMID: 23690608). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.G683R pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2047G>A), located in coding exon 13 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2047. The glycine at codon 683 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been detected in multiple HNPCC/Lynch syndrome probands whose tumors demonstrated microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and/or absence of MSH2 staining on immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Samowitz WS et al. Gastroenterology 2001 Oct;121(4):830-8; Sheng JQ et al. Cytogenet. Genome Res. 2008 Oct;122:22-27; Jasperson KW et al. Fam. Cancer 2010 Jun;9:99-107; Ambry internal data). In vitro functional analysis of p.G683R showed a significant reduction in mismatch repair activity compared to wildtype MSH2 (Drost M et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2013 Jun;110:9403-8; Nielsen SV et al. PLoS Genet. 2017 Apr;13:e1006739). In a massively parallel cell-based functional assay testing susceptibility to a DNA damaging agent, 6-thioguanine (6-TG), this variant was determined to be functionally deleterious (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 Jan;108:163-175). This alteration has been classified as definitely pathogenic (p>0.99) by multifactorial analysis, which integrates the following lines of evidence to produce a quantitative likelihood of pathogenicity: in silico prediction models, segregation with disease, tumor characteristics, mutation co-occurrence, and functional assay results (Thompson B et al. Nat. Genet. 2014 Feb;46(2):107-15; available at [www.insight-group.org/variants/classifications/]). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
