Description

This missense variant replaces leucine with proline at codon 187 of the MSH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant has deficient DNA repair and tolerance to DNA damaging agents (PMID: 17101317, 20176959, 28422960, 30998989, 33357406). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 15849733, 17101317, 17192056). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Description

The p.L187P pathogenic mutation (also known as c.560T>C), located in coding exon 3 of the MSH2 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 560. The leucine at codon 187 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with similar properties. This mutation has been reported in families meeting Bethesda or Amsterdam criteria and segregated with disease in one family with Muire-Torre phenotype (Mangold E et al. Int. J. Cancer 2005 Sep;116:692-702; Ollila S et al. Int. J. Oncol. 2006 Jan;28:149-53). Published structural analysis suggests that this alteration (L187P) structurally destabalizes the MSH2 protein resulting in reduced binding to MSH3 and MSH6 (Nielsen SV et al. PLoS Genet., 2017 Apr;13:e1006739). In addition, functional assays have shown that the L187P protein is MMR deficient (Ollila S et al. Int. J. Oncol. 2006 Jan;28:149-53; Ollila S et al. Gastroenterology 2006 Nov;131:1408-17; Martinez SL et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2010 Mar;107:5070-5). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
