not provided Uncertain:2
In the published literature, this variant has been reported in an individual with colorectal cancer, who also had a frameshift MLH1 variant (PMID: 37088804 (2023)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0000088 (1/113608 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. -
The p.Lys471Asn variant in MSH2 has not been previously reported in individuals with colorectal cancer but has been identified in 0.0009% (1/113608) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 186853). Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
This missense variant replaces lysine with asparagine at codon 471 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 1/251306 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. -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
Carcinoma of colon Uncertain:1
The MSH2 p.Lys471Asn variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs745874745) as "With Likely benign, Uncertain significance allele", in ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, Ambry Genetics and Color), and in UMD-LSDB (2x as unclassified variant). The variant was identified in control databases in 2 of 246082 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the European population in 2 of 111552 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Lys471 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1
