Lynch syndrome 1    Pathogenic:2 
- -
This variant has been reported in the literature in individuals with Lynch syndrome (Coolbaugh-Murphy 2010, Lagerstedt-Robinson 2016). This variant is not present in population databases (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). This variant is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and lead to an absent or disrupted protein. Loss of expression of one allele of MSH2 is an established mechanism of disease for Lynch syndrome (Mangold 2005, Thompson 2014). Thus, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic. PM2; PVS1 -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Pathogenic:2 
This variant causes a G to A nucleotide substitution at the -1 position of intron 4 of the MSH2 gene. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Although this prediction has not been confirmed in published RNA studies, this variant is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 20052760, 27601186). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH2 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
The c.793-1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 5 of the MSH2 gene. In one study this alteration (designated as c.861-1G>A) was observed in a 36 year-old male with HNPCC who had a higher frequency of mutant microsatellite fragments than age-matched normal controls (Coolbaugh-Murphy MI et al. Hum. Mutat. 2010 Mar;31(3):317-24). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms    Pathogenic:1 
This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 4 of the MSH2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 20052760, 27601186; Invitae). This variant is also known as c.861-1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218048). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
