International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000076310 SCV000107331 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Coding sequence variation introducing premature termination codon
GeneDx RCV000202123 SCV000293285 pathogenic not provided 2018-09-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This deletion of one nucleotide is denoted MSH2 c.187delG at the cDNA level and p.Val63Ter (V63X) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is deleted in brackets, is AGGGG[delG]TGAT. The deletion creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Valine to a premature stop codon. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours Incorporated (InSiGHT) classifies this variant as pathogenic (Thompson 2014). MSH2 c.187delG has been identified in individuals with a personal and family history suggestive of Lynch syndrome, and tumors from several of these individuals exhibited microsatellite instability and/or absence of MSH2 expression (Beherns 2003, Mangold 2005, Lotsari 2012). We consider this variant to be pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV000491017 SCV000580445 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-09-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.187delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 187, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.V63*). This mutation has been reported in multiple HNPCC/Lynch syndrome patients; several whose tumors demonstrated loss of MSH2 staining by immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Behrens P et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2003 Nov;107:183-8; Mangold E et al. J Pathol, 2005 Dec;207:385-95; Dominguez-Valentin M et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2013 Dec;11:18; Carneiro da Silva F et al. PLoS One, 2015 Oct;10:e0139753; Lagerstedt-Robinson K et al. Oncol Rep, 2016 Nov;36:2823-2835; Rossi BM et al. BMC Cancer, 2017 Sep;17:623; Wischhusen JW et al. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev, 2020 01;29:193-199). This mutation was also identified in an individual diagnosed with breast cancer at age 55, whose breast tumor showed microsatellite instability and absent MSH2 and MSH6 staining on IHC (Lotsari JE et al. Breast Cancer Res. 2012 Jun 12;14(3):R90). 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.

Invitae RCV001231661 SCV001404190 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2021-09-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90808). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 15849733, 22691310, 26437257, 27601186). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val63*) 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).
