RCV001188274 | SCV001355296 | pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2019-10-21 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 12 of the MSH2 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with colon cancer whose tumor showed microsatellite instability and loss of MSH2 by immunohistochemistry (PMID: 30693488). 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. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV001188274 | SCV002717039 | pathogenic | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2021-06-04 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.G614* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1840G>T), located in coding exon 12 of the MSH2 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1840. This changes the amino acid from a glycine to a stop codon within coding exon 12. This mutation has been reported in a 46 year old individual diagnosed with MSI colorectal cancer that exhibited loss of MSH2 and MSH6 proteins on immunohistochemistry (Antelo M et al. Int J Cancer, 2019 08;145:705-713). 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. |

RCV002560014 | SCV002966438 | pathogenic | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2022-03-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 30693488). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly614*) 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). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 925991). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |

RCV003449614 | SCV004186945 | pathogenic | Lynch syndrome 1 | 2023-08-03 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. |
