International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000076709 SCV000107745 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Variant causes splicing aberration interrupting known functional domains (full inactivation of variant allele)
Ambry Genetics RCV001026957 SCV001189437 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-06-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.792+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 4 of the MSH2 gene. This variant has been identified in individuals meeting Amsterdam criteria with microsatellite unstable tumors also demonstrating loss of MSH2 and MSH6 protein expression by immunohistochemistry analysis (Cunningham JM et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2001 Oct;69:780-90; Casey G et al. JAMA, 2005 Feb;293:799-809; Rosty C et al. Fam. Cancer 2014 Dec;13:573-82; Ambry internal data). The colon tumor of one of these patients was also found to have a somatic MSH2 mutation ("1165C>T, R389 stop") (Cunningham JM et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2001 Oct;69:780-90). Additionally, conversion analysis confirmed that the c.792+1G>A variant results in coding exon 4 skipping (Casey G et al. JAMA 2005 Feb;293:799-809). 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. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration results in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001026957 SCV001354533 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2019-10-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant (also known as IVS4+1G>A) causes a G>A nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 4 of the MSH2 gene. Functional RNA studies have shown that this variant causes exon 4 skipping resulting in loss of DNA binding domain (PMID: 15713769). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 11524701, 15713769, 23752102, 25117503). 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.
Invitae RCV001233639 SCV001406243 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-12-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 4 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. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMID: 15713769, 25117503). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91205). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in partial intron inclusion due to the activation of a cryptic splice site and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
GeneDx RCV001588899 SCV001822507 likely pathogenic not provided 2021-01-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in an in-frame deletion of the critical connector domains (Lutzen 2008, Kansikas 2011); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); Reported in individuals with colon cancer with concordant mismatch repair immunohistochemistry results reported to result in skipping of exon 4 (Cunningham 2001, Casey 2005, Rosty 2014).; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32390703, 11524701, 23752102, 25117503, 15713769, 25525159)
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV003452966 SCV004188014 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 1 2023-07-28 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: 15713769].
