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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. Scorers claiming Benign: dbscSNV1_RF.

The c.1760-3C>G intronic variant results from a C to G substitution 3 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 12 in the MSH2 gene. This variant has been identified in a proband whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated high microsatellite instability and loss of MSH2 and MSH6 expression by immunohistochemistry (Antelo M et al. Int J Cancer, 2019 Aug;145:705-713). Additionally, this alteration was identified in a cohort of 1260 individuals undergoing panel testing for Lynch syndrome due to having a diagnosis of a Lynch-associated cancer and/or polyps (Yurgelun MB et al. Gastroenterology, 2015 Sep;149:604-13.e20).This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
