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

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 9 benign, 15 uncertain in NM_000251.3
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-47478333-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 229891.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submission is: [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.985
• BP6: Variant 2-47478333-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr2-47478333-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 408498.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submission is: [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity].

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with asparagine at codon 758 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. Experimental studies have shown that this variant was functional in a 6-thioguanine selection assay (PMID: 33357406). This variant has not been reported in an individual affected with endometrial cancer (PMID: 30238922). This variant has not been identified 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. -
