Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_ModeratePP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000251.3(MSH2):c.491G>A(p.Gly164Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G164R) 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]

Lynch syndrome 1 Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Jul 27, 2023This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant is expected to disrupt protein structure [Myriad internal data]. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 33357406]. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 09, 2022This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Gly164 amino acid residue in MSH2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 1710317, 15849733, 18951462). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of experimental studies (such as gene expression, population dynamics, functional pathways, and cell-cycle effects in cell culture) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MSH2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188119). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 23443670; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 164 of the MSH2 protein (p.Gly164Glu). -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 24, 2022The p.G164E pathogenic mutation (also known as c.491G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 491. The glycine at codon 164 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This mutation was detected in an individual whose colon tumor displayed absent MSH2/MSH6 protein staining by immunohistochemistry and had a family history that met Amsterdam criteria. Furthermore, the alteration showed moderate segregation with disease in this family (Ambry internal data). This mutation was identified in an individual with urothelial cancer who also met Amsterdam criteria II; MSH2 and MSH6 expression was also lost upon IHC analysis (Ambry internal data). This alteration has been classified as pathogenic by multifactorial analysis (Thompson B et al. Nat Genet. 2014 Feb;46(2):107-15; available at [www.insight-group.org/variants/classifications/]). Based on an internal structural assessment, this alteration is in the core of the connector domain and is highly destabilizing in an established sensitive region (Warren JJ et al. Mol. Cell, 2007 May;26:579-92). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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 supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
