Genes affected

MSH3 (HGNC:7326): (mutS homolog 3) The protein encoded by this gene forms a heterodimer with MSH2 to form MutS beta, part of the post-replicative DNA mismatch repair system. MutS beta initiates mismatch repair by binding to a mismatch and then forming a complex with MutL alpha heterodimer. This gene contains a polymorphic 9 bp tandem repeat sequence in the first exon. The repeat is present 6 times in the reference genome sequence and 3-7 repeats have been reported. Defects in this gene are a cause of susceptibility to endometrial cancer.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 10, 2024	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys383Argfs*32) in the MSH3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 27476653, 37402566). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 27476653). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 8738). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Apr 13, 2023	Observed with a second MSH3 variant in two siblings with multiple colorectal polyps, colorectal cancer, and other cancers (Adam et al., 2016); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34843512, 27476653, 28528517, 8782829) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories	Aug 21, 2020	The MSH3 c.1148delA; p.Lys383Argfs*32 variant (rs587776701) has been previously published with a additional pathogenic variant on the opposite chromosome in an individual with autosomal recessive subtype4 of colorectal adenomatous polyposis (Adam 2016). The variant is reported as pathogenic in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 8738) and is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.001079% (3/277,990 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting a single nucleotide, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Adam et al.

Dec 12, 2023

The MSH3 c.1148delA variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Lys383Argfs*32). This variant has been reported to be pathogenic in a patient with autosomal recessive colorectal adenomatous polyposis (Adam et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27476653). This variant is reported in 0.024% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/642843/). Frameshift variants in MSH3 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

The c.1148delA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 7 of the MSH3 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1148, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.K383Rfs*32). This mutation was reported along with another MSH3 pathogenic mutation in two sisters: one diagnosed with colorectal cancer, colon polyps and gastric cancer, and the other with colon and duodenal polyps, thyroid adenoma and intraductal papillomas. Both parents were unaffected (Adam R et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 2016 Aug;99:337-51). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
