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 Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 2-47412550-T-TA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-47412550-T-TA is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 188205.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Submissions by phenotype

Lynch syndrome Pathogenic:1

Nov 01, 2014

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH2 mRNA (c.782_783insA), causing a frameshift at codon 261. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met261Ilefs*23) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. While this particular sequence change has not been reported in the literature, truncating sequence changes in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733). For these reasons, this sequence change has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1

Nov 07, 2016

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). This sequence change inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH2 mRNA (c.782_783insA), causing a frameshift at codon 261. This creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Met261Ilefs*23) and is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1

Apr 30, 2024

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.782_783insA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the MSH2 gene, results from an insertion of one nucleotide at position 782, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.M261Ifs*23). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
