Invitae RCV000525199 SCV000625296 uncertain significance Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-08-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 455516). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 56 of the MSH2 protein (p.Glu56Gln).
Ambry Genetics RCV001012654 SCV001173135 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-07-29 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001260343 SCV001437276 uncertain significance not specified 2020-09-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH2 c.166G>C (p.Glu56Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS-like, N-terminal domain (IPR007695) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 233278 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.166G>C in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
Baylor Genetics RCV003459177 SCV004196272 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 1 2023-09-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001012654 SCV004356573 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-11-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with glutamine at codon 56 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 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). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH2-related disorders in the literature. 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.
