International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000076741 SCV000107778 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon
Ambry Genetics RCV000575858 SCV000673904 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-05-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.873_876delGACT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 5 of the MSH2 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 873 to 876, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.T292Lfs*8). This mutation was identified in a patient with colorectal cancer at age 42 that was MSI-H and demonstrated loss of MSH2 and MSH6 by immunohistochemistry, and the patient's family history meet Amsterdam criteria I (Kunstmann E et al. BMC Med. Genet. 2004 Jun;5:16). 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 RCV000629801 SCV000750757 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2022-05-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Thr292Leufs*8) 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 Lynch syndrome (PMID: 15217520, 15849733). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 91236). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000657243 SCV002050047 pathogenic not provided 2020-12-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The MSH2 c.873_876delGACT; p.Thr292LeufsTer8 variant (rs587779191) has been reported in the literature in at least one individual with Lynch syndrome (Kunstmann 2004, Mangold 2005). The variant is reported as pathogenic by several sources in the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 91236) and is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant causes a frameshift by deleting 4 nucleotides, so it is predicted to result in a truncated protein or mRNA subject to nonsense-mediated decay. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References Kunstmann E et al. HNPCC: six new pathogenic mutations. BMC Med Genet. 2004 Jun 24;5:16. Mangold E et al.
