Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5
The NM_000251.3(MSH2):āc.1660A>Cā(p.Ser554Arg) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely benign in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S554T) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Lynch syndrome 1 Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered likely pathogenic. mRNA analysis has demonstrated abnormal mRNA splicing occurs [Myriad internal data]. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.S554R variant (also known as c.1660A>C), located in coding exon 10 of the MSH2 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1660. The serine at codon 554 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in a 38 year-old individual with MSI-H rectal cancer demonstrating loss of MSH2 protein expression by IHC (Müller-Koch Y et al. Eur. J. Med. Res., 2001 Nov;6:473-82). Likewise, this variant was identified in a patient with MSH2/MSH6 deficient endometrial cancer whose family history met Amsterdam criteria (Ambry internal data). Furthermore, p.S554R has the same predicted impact on splicing as a different substitution at this amino acid position (p.S554G, c.1660A>G), which is currently classified as mutation by our laboratory in part because conversion analysis revealed an association with out of frame skipping of exon 10, and it has been identified in individuals with Lynch syndrome and concordant IHC results (Casey G et al. JAMA 2005; 293:799-809). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, as a missense substitution, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 11726306). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces serine with arginine at codon 554 of the MSH2 protein (p.Ser554Arg). The serine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between serine and arginine. -
