The MSH2 c.386C>G (p.Ser129Cys) variant has been reported in a large case-control study this variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/MSH2)). A screening assay based on cell survival in response to 6-thioguanine treatment showed that this variant has an inconclusive effect on DNA mismatch repair function (PMID: 33357406 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251178 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
This variant is denoted MSH2 c.386C>G at the cDNA level, p.Ser129Cys (S129C) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Serine to a Cysteine (TCT>TGT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as a pathogenic or benign germline variant. MSH2 Ser129Cys was not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the connector domain (L?tzen 2008, Kansikas 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH2 Ser129Cys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3
This missense variant replaces serine with cysteine at codon 129 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant impacts MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (ClinGen VCEP defined LOF score threshold > 0.4, PMID: 33357406). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 13/1613812 chromosomes 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. -
PS3_Moderate, PM2_Supporting, BP4 c.386C>G located in exon 3 of the MSH2 gene, is predicted to result in the substitution of serine by cysteine at codon 129, p.(Ser129Cys). This variant is found in 1/268078, at a frequency of 0.0004% in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database, non-cancer data set (PM2_supporting). Computational tools for this variant predict a deleterious effect of the variant on protein function (MAPP+PolyPhen-2 prior probability for pathogenicity: 0.002) (BP4). A functional study based on cell viability assay in HEK293 or HAP1 cells using 6-TG treatment demonstrates abnormal function for this variant, with a LOF score of 0,57 (PMID 33357406) (PS3_moderate). In addition, the variant was also identified in the ClinVar database (6x uncertain significance, 1x likely benign) and LOVD (1x not provided) but it has not been identified in the InSiGHT database. Based on currently available information, the variant c.386C>G is classified as an uncertain significance variant according to ACMG guidelines. -
The p.S129C variant (also known as c.386C>G), located in coding exon 3 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 386. The serine at codon 129 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. In a massively parallel cell-based functional assay testing susceptibility to a DNA damaging agent, 6-thioguanine (6-TG), this variant was reported to be functionally deleterious (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 Jan;108:163-175). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces serine with cysteine at codon 129 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant has intermediate MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (internally defined LOF score threshold -1.32 < LOF score < 0.88, PMID: 33357406). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251178 chromosomes 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. -
