Description

The c.119delG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 119, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.G40Afs*24). This mutation has been reported in multiple patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) or Lynch syndrome; including at least one patient whose tumor demonstrated microsatellite instability and had a family history meeting Amsterdam criteria (Caluseriu O et al. Hum Mutat, 2001 Jun;17:521; Pucciarelli S et al. Dis Colon Rectum, 2003 Mar;46:305-12; De Lellis L et al. PLoS One, 2013 Nov;8:e81194; Simbolo M et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2015 Aug;13:18). 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.

Description

This variant deletes 1 nucleotide in exon 1 of the MSH2 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals and families affected with Lynch syndrome and Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 11385712, 12626904, 21642682, 24278394, 26300997). 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 (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
