Ambry Genetics RCV000167015 SCV000217838 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-06-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.-98C>T variant is located in the 5' untranslated region (5’ UTR) of the MSH2 gene. This variant results from a C to T substitution 98 bases upstream from the first translated codon. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV001139261 SCV001299387 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 1 2018-02-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease.
