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]

Submissions by phenotype

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 28, 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 HealthNov 18, 2021This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 331 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). A functional study has reported that this variant does not impact MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (PMID: 33357406). This missense protein has been reported in an individual affected with gastric and ovarian cancer, however, the cDNA change provided, c.992A>C, encodes a different protein change, p.Asn331Thr (PMID: 25133505). This variant has been identified in 2/251458 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 nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 22, 2023This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 331 of the MSH2 protein (p.Asn331Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs779673318, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian and gastric cancer (PMID: 25133505). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 480911). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 33357406) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MSH2 function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
