Ambry Genetics RCV000221149 SCV000276142 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-02-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.34dupG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a duplication of G at nucleotide position 34, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E12Gfs*70). This alteration has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with MSH2-related disease (Ambry internal data). In one study, this mutation was detected in 3/36 colorectal cancer families tested (Colombino M et al. Ann. Oncol. 2003 Oct;14:1530-6). This mutation has also been reported in a male with Muir-Torre syndrome; he had multiple (>30) sebaceous adenomas and sebaceous carcinomas and family history of colon cancer in his father, brother, paternal uncles, and cousin (Landis MN et al. J. Am. Acad. Dermatol. 2011 Nov;65:1054-1058.e1). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Of note, this alteration is also designated as "c.34_35insG" in published literature. 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 RCV000554624 SCV000625418 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-12-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu12Glyfs*70) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer and Muir-Torre syndrome (PMID: 14504054, 21550136, 28514183). This variant is also known as 34_35insG. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91068). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000202253 SCV001470550 pathogenic not provided 2019-09-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This frameshift variant causes the premature termination of MSH2 protein synthesis. In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer and Muir-Torre syndrome (PMID: 14504054 (2003), 15862756 (2005), 21550136 (2011)). Based on the available information, this variant has been classified as pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002298463 SCV002598590 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer 2022-09-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH2 c.34dupG (p.Glu12GlyfsX70) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 223170 control chromosomes. c.34dupG has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
