Description

The p.S281* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.842C>G), located in coding exon 5 of the MSH2 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 842. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 5. This mutation has been identified in multiple colorectal cancer patients who met Amsterdam II and/or Bethesda criteria and whose tumors exhibited absent staining for the MSH2 and MSH6 proteins (Zhu F et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2019 Mar;17:9; Moussa SA et al. Int J Colorectal Dis. 2011 Apr;26:455-67; Rahner N et al. Acta Oncol, 2007;46:763-9). 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.
