Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 10P and 1B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong BP6

The NM_000251.3(MSH2):​c.2048G>A​(p.Gly683Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,880 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G683R) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

The p.G683E variant (also known as c.2048G>A), located in coding exon 13 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2048. The glycine at codon 683 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. In a massively parallel cell-based functional assay testing susceptibility to a DNA damaging agent, 6-thioguanine (6-TG), this variant was determined to be functionally neutral (Jia X et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2021 Jan;108:163-175). The yeast equivalent of this variant demonstrated an increased mutation rate in a multiplexed functional assay performed using Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Ollodart AR et al. Genetics, 2021 Jun;218:). 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. -
