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 Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 16) in uniprot entity MSH2_HUMAN there are 4 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (80%) in NM_000251.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.945

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MSH2-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces tryptophan with arginine at codon 764 of the MSH2 protein (p.Trp764Arg). The tryptophan residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between tryptophan and arginine. -

The p.W764R variant (also known as c.2290T>C), located in coding exon 14 of the MSH2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 2290. The tryptophan at codon 764 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
