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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 29, 2018This variant is denoted MSH2 c.164G>A at the cDNA level, p.Arg55Gln (R55Q) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Glutamine (CGG>CAG). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH2 Arg55Gln was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Arginine and Glutamine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution. MSH2 Arg55Gln occurs at a position where amino acids with properties similar to Arginine are are tolerated across species and is located in the mismatch binding domain (Lutzen 2008). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether MSH2 Arg55Gln is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoFeb 01, 2024The MSH2 c.164G>A (p.Arg55Gln) variant has not been reported in individuals with MSH2-related conditions in the published literature. . An experimental study indicates this variant has neutral effect on DNA mismatch repair-associated cell survival in a drug sensitivity assay (PMID: 33357406 (2021)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00021 (7/33382 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 benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthOct 02, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 55 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with endometrial cancer with a family history of Lynch syndrome (www.umd.be). Other affected individuals from this family carried a variant in the MSH6 gene. This variant has been identified in 7/233024 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 26, 2022This 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthSep 14, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 55 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 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 7/233024 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. -
