Ambry Genetics RCV000218216 SCV000278680 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-04-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.212-1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 2 of the MSH2 gene. This variant has been identified in a proband(s) who met Amsterdam I/II criteria for Lynch syndrome and tumor demonstrated high microsatellite instability and/or loss of MSH2/MSH6 expression by immunohistochemistry (Ambry internal data; Liccardo R et al. Mol Med Rep, 2018 May;17:6942-6946). This variant has been identified in a proband(s) whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated loss of MSH2/MSH6 expression by immunohistochemistry (Ambry internal data; Overbeek LI et al. Br J Cancer, 2007 May;96:1605-12; De Lellis L et al. PLoS One, 2013 Nov;8:e81194). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
GeneDx RCV000202270 SCV000567721 pathogenic not provided 2023-03-30 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in a null allele in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Identified in individuals with personal and/or family history of Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (Overbeek et al., 2007; Ramsoekh et al., 2008; De Lellis et al., 2013; Liccardo et al., 2018); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17453009, 25525159, 20591884, 24278394, 18625694, 25561518, 28526081, 29568967, 33866195, 33087929, 31615790, 28888541)
Invitae RCV000696322 SCV000824877 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2022-01-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of two cryptic splice sites and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 29568967). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90892). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 17453009, 18625694, 20591884, 24278394, 29568967). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 1 of the MSH2 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000218216 SCV001348701 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2019-11-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant causes a G>A nucleotide substitution at the -1 position of intron 1 of the MSH2 gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. Abnormal splicing was observed from the RNA study (PMID: 29568967). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 17453009, 29568967), Lynch Syndrome or clinical suspicion of Lynch Syndrome (PMID: 18625694, 24278394) and endometrial cancer (PMID: 29345684). 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.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV003452890 SCV004187937 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 1 2023-07-26 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. This variant is strongly associated with more severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals with pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726].

Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000202270 SCV004220976 pathogenic not provided 2022-10-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant disrupts a canonical splice-acceptor site and interferes with normal MSH2 mRNA splicing. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals affected with colon cancer (PMID: 17453009 (2007), 24278394 (2013), 29568967 (2018)) and pituitary macroadenoma (PMID: 33866195 (2021)). RNA analysis has shown that this variant generates two aberrant transcripts with premature termination codons (PMID: 29568967 (2018)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000076394 SCV004847735 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2019-10-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.212-1G>A variant in MSH2 has been reported in 1 individual affected with colorectal cancer (Overbeek 2007), 1 individual with Lynch syndrome (De Lellis 2013), 1 individual with bladder cancer (van der Post 2010), and 1 individual with clinical suspicion of Lynch syndrome (Ramsoekh 2008). It was absent from large population studies. This variant was classified as Pathogenic on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (Variation ID 90892). This variant occurs within the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Loss of function of the MSH2 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. In summary, the c.212-1G>A variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1, PM2, PS4_Supporting.
