Invitae | RCV000818363 | SCV000958973 | pathogenic | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2023-11-01 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly40Alafs*24) in the MSH2 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15849733, 24362816). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 11385712, 12626904, 24278394, 26300997). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90563). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV002345384 | SCV002647028 | pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2020-11-05 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The c.119delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 119, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.G40Afs*24). This mutation has been reported in multiple patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) or Lynch syndrome; including at least one patient whose tumor demonstrated microsatellite instability and had a family history meeting Amsterdam criteria (Caluseriu O et al. Hum Mutat, 2001 Jun;17:521; Pucciarelli S et al. Dis Colon Rectum, 2003 Mar;46:305-12; De Lellis L et al. PLoS One, 2013 Nov;8:e81194; Simbolo M et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2015 Aug;13:18). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. |

RCV002345384 | SCV004356570 | pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2023-11-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals and families affected with Lynch syndrome and Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 11385712, 12626904, 21642682, 24278394, 26300997). 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 Pathogenic. |
