GeneDx RCV000115497 SCV000149406 uncertain significance not provided 2015-02-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is denoted MSH2 c.1204C>A at the cDNA level, p.Gln402Lys (Q402K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamine to a Lysine (CAA>AAA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH2 Gln402Lys was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Glutamine and Lysine differ in some properties, this is considered a semi-conservative amino acid substitution and may affect protein integrity. MSH2 Gln402Lys occurs at a position that is well conserved across species and is located in the Lever domain (Lutzen 2008). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether MSH2 Gln402Lys is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.

Ambry Genetics RCV000574856 SCV000662267 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-07-10 criteria provided, single submitter 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.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000574856 SCV001355751 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-11-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glutamine with lysine at codon 402 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant does not impact MSH2 function in a 6-thioguanine sensitivity assay in haploid human cells (internally defined LOF score threshold <= -1.32, PMID: 33357406). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH2-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 3/282764 chromosomes 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001193851 SCV001362999 uncertain significance not specified 2019-04-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH2 c.1204C>A (p.Gln402Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.1e-05 in 277114 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1204C>A in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000663163 SCV004018351 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 1 2023-03-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk.
