Invitae RCV000122982 SCV000166265 uncertain significance Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-12-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 56 of the MSH2 protein (p.Glu56Lys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with ovarian cancer and colorectal cancer (PMID: 23047549, 31997046). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 135854). Advanced modeling performed at Invitae incorporating data from internal and/or published experimental studies (PMID: 33357406) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MSH2 function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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.
GeneDx RCV000657006 SCV000292792 uncertain significance not provided 2023-10-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Identified in an individual with ovarian cancer and another with colorectal cancer whose tumor retained MSH2 expression on immunohistochemistry (PMID: 31997046, 23047549); Published functional studies demonstrate sensitivity to 6-thioguanine, suggesting intact mismatch repair function (PMID: 33357406); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31997046, 23047549, 18822302, 21120944, 33357406)
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000235661 SCV000539688 uncertain significance not specified 2016-06-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: Reported in proband with ovarian cancer; ClinVar: 1 VUS
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000580136 SCV000684962 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-09-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 56 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 been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 23047549) and an individual affected with colon cancer (PMID: 31997046). 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV000580136 SCV001173134 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-12-16 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.
