The NM_000251.3(MSH2):c.1571G>A (p.Arg524His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000136 (AC=22) in the gnomAD database across 1,613,824 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.00000931. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 9.06). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (no review stars). A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.R524P: Likely_pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 1759, 3 stars) Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.R524C: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 421654); p.R524L: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 90701, 2 stars); p.R524= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 1153022, 2 stars) This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance; it is also listed as a COSMIC curated somatic variant.

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]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Specifications for MSH2 are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases		Very rare in gnomAD for AD/XL gene (popmax AF < threshold/10) — PM2; GnomAD popmax AF = 0.00000931 — very rare for AD+AR gene (base 0.0001, raised to 0.0005 by highest known P/LP ClinVar AF 0.00268) — PM2 moderate.
	PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue		Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.R524P: Likely_pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 1759, 3 stars); Other variants at the same amino acid residue (not pathogenic): p.R524C: Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity (ClinVar VariationId 421654); p.R524L: Uncertain_significance (ClinVar VariationId 90701, 2 stars); p.R524= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 1153022, 2 stars)
	PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect		Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — moderate evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Moderate).
