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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 20 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 10 benign, 25 uncertain in NM_000251.3
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-47476403-A-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 959234.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.979
• BP6: Variant 2-47476402-C-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-47476402-C-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 182568.

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces glutamine with glutamic acid at codon 681 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant does not impact MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (internally defined LOF score threshold <= -1.32, PMID: 33357406). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 1/251456 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q681E variant (also known as c.2041C>G), located in coding exon 13 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 2041. The glutamine at codon 681 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar 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 neutral (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 Jan;108:163-175). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
