Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:2
Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
The c.1077-3C>A intronic variant results from a C to A substitution 3 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 7 in the MSH2 gene. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
This variant causes a C>A nucleotide substitution at the -3 position of intron 6 of the MSH2 gene. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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 nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change falls in intron 6 of the MSH2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MSH2 protein, but it affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site of the intron. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MSH2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 439185). Nucleotide substitutions within the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. -
