Ambry Genetics RCV000491073 SCV000580451 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-08-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.2634+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 15 of the MSH2 gene. This mutation has been reported in at least one proband who met Amsterdam I/II criteria for Lynch syndrome (Bonadona V et al. JAMA 2011 Jun;305:2304-10; Kurzawski G et al. Clin. Genet. 2006 Jan;69:40-7; Liu B et al. Cancer Res. 1994 Sep;54:4590-4). In addition, published in vitro analyses indicated that this substitution lead to the skipping of coding exon 15 (Liu B et al. Cancer Res. 1994 Sep;54:4590-4). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site and may result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.

Invitae RCV000688047 SCV000815644 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-07-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in skipping of exon 15 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 8062247). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91016). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 8062247, 16451135, 20587412, 21642682, 25980754; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 15 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000076518 SCV000919702 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2018-05-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH2 c.2634+1G>A is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. One publication reports experimental evidence showing exon 15 deletion associated with this variant (Liu_1994). The variant was absent in 121394 control chromosomes (ExAC). The variant, c.2634+1G>A, has been reported in the literature in several individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome (Bonadona_2011, Dymerska_2010, Liu_1994, Yurgelun_2015). These data indicate that the variant is likely associated with disease. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV003452923 SCV004187920 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 1 2023-08-09 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. mRNA analysis has demonstrated abnormal mRNA splicing occurs [PMID: 3658675]. 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].
