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]

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Jan 03, 2020	The c.-81dupA variant is located in the 5 prime untranslated region (5'UTR) of the MSH2 gene. This variant results from an duplication of an A nucleotide 81 nucleotides upstream from the first translated codon. This alteration has been reported (designated as "80A insertion") in a Korean family, including a mother with colon cancer at 61 years of age, and her son diagnosed with rectal cancer at age 36, and was not reported in any of the 157 members of the nonmalignant control group (Shin YK et al. Hum. Mutat., 2004 Oct;24:351; Shin KH et al. Cancer Res., 2002 Jan;62:38-42). Shin et al. also showed that this alteration resulted in decreased transcriptional efficiency by 82%, speculating this may be due to its proximity to the major transcription start point. This nucleotide position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Nov 06, 2019	This variant is located in the 5’ untranslated region of the MSH2 gene. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. Functional studies have shown that this variant had 18% promoter activity compared to the wild type by luciferase reporter assay and loss of MSH2 expression from mutant allele (PMID: 11782355). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 11782355). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

In the published literature, the variant has been reported in a family with colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 11782355 (2002) and 15365995 (2004)). Functional studies have shown that this variant results in a reduced transcriptional efficiency in a luciferase reporter assay and loss of MSH2 expression from the mutant allele (PMID: 11782355 (2002)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000013 (2/152258 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
