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]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 23, 2019Variant summary: MSH2 c.279_281delTCT (p.Leu94del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove one of three consecutive Leucine from the encoded protein. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing, which was confirmed by one ex vivo splicing assay (Tournier_2008). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00018 in 282552 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.001 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH2 causing Lynch Syndrome phenotype (0.00057), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.279_281delTCT has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CRC, HNPCC, and endometrial cancers (DeRycke_2017, Dymerska_2010, Geurts-Giele_2014, Gille_2002, Hampel_2005, Kurzawski_2006, Liu_2001) including one family that showed the variant to no segregate with disease (Liu_2001). Co-occurrence with other pathogenic variant has been reported (MSH2 c.638_639delTG, p.Leu213GlnfsX18), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Seven ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) and an reputable database (InSiGHT) cite the variant as likely benign/benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
