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]

MSH2 NM_000251.2:c.1862G>A has a 86.1% probability of pathogenicity based on combining prior probability from public data with a likelihood ratio of 1.56 to 1, generated from evidence of seeing this as a somatic mutation in a tumor without loss of heterozygosity at the MSH2 locus.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R621Q variant (also known as c.1862G>A), located in coding exon 12 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1862. The arginine at codon 621 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in a cohort of 348 French subjects from 163 families who met at least one of the modified Amsterdam criteria, and authors classified this alteration as non-functional (likely to be a polymorphism) (Parc Y et al. J. Med. Genet., 2003 Mar;40:208-13). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
