Genes affected
MSH6 (HGNC:7329): (mutS homolog 6) This gene encodes a member of the DNA mismatch repair MutS family. In E. coli, the MutS protein helps in the recognition of mismatched nucleotides prior to their repair. A highly conserved region of approximately 150 aa, called the Walker-A adenine nucleotide binding motif, exists in MutS homologs. The encoded protein heterodimerizes with MSH2 to form a mismatch recognition complex that functions as a bidirectional molecular switch that exchanges ADP and ATP as DNA mismatches are bound and dissociated. Mutations in this gene may be associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer, colorectal cancer, and endometrial cancer. Transcripts variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

FBXO11 (HGNC:13590): (F-box protein 11) This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbxs class. It can function as an arginine methyltransferase that symmetrically dimethylates arginine residues, and it acts as an adaptor protein to mediate the neddylation of p53, which leads to the suppression of p53 function. This gene is known to be down-regulated in melanocytes from patients with vitiligo, a skin disorder that results in depigmentation. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with chronic otitis media with effusion and recurrent otitis media (COME/ROM), a hearing loss disorder, and the knockout of the homologous mouse gene results in the deaf mouse mutant Jeff (Jf), a single gene model of otitis media. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:1
Aug 10, 2023
Myriad Genetics, Inc.
Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered likely 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The MSH6 c.628-2A>G variant, to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature or gene specific databases. This variant is also absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. This variant abolishes the canonical splice acceptor site of intron 3, which is likely to disrupt gene function. Other truncating variants downstream of this variant have been identified in families with diagnosed or suspected Lynch syndrome and are considered pathogenic (Rossi 2017, Sjursen 2010). Based on available information, the c.628-2A>G variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Rossi BM et al. A survey of the clinicopathological and molecular characteristics of patients with suspected Lynch syndrome in Latin America. BMC Cancer. 2017 Sep 5;17(1):623. Sjursen W et al. Current clinical criteria for Lynch syndrome are not sensitive enough to identify MSH6 mutation carriers. J Med Genet. 2010 Sep;47(9):579-85. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
Jul 29, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 3 of the MSH6 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or altered protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with endometrial cancer (PMID: 27443514). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 428338). Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site, and produces a non-functional protein and/or introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Oct 04, 2024
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Likely pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.628-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides upstream from coding exon 4 in the MSH6 gene. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
