The p.Gln232X variant has been reported in the literature in 1/120 proband chromosomes of an individual with Lynch syndrome (Pritchard 2012); it was not identified in any of the 38 control chromosomes. In addition, it has been previously identified in one family by our laboratory meeting MOH criteria for FAP. The variant was also identified in the InSiGHT Colon Cancer database. The variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 232 which is predicted to cause premature truncation or absent protein product and loss of function. Loss of function is an established disease mechanism for the MSH6 gene and is the type of variant expected to cause Lynch syndrome. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

This pathogenic variant is denoted MSH6 c.694C>T at the cDNA level and p.Gln232Ter (Q232X) at the protein level. The substitution creates a nonsense variant, which changes a Glutamine to a premature stop codon (CAG>TAG), and is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was reported in a recent study (Pritchard 2012) and is considered pathogenic. -

Lynch syndrome Pathogenic:2
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, creating a 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 affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers and/or colorectal polyps (PMID: 22658618, 25980754). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon -
Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln232*) in the MSH6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18269114, 24362816). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 22658618). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89556). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.Q232* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.694C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 694. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. 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. -
