Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP4
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.727C>T(p.Arg243Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000744 in 1,613,782 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R243H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Submissions by phenotype
Lynch syndrome 5 Uncertain:2
This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 243 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH6-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251088 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
The p.R243C variant (also known as c.727C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 727. The arginine at codon 243 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients, who underwent whole genome sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing; this patient was diagnosed with a high grade glioma (Zhang J et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2015 Dec;373:2336-2346). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.727C>T (p.Arg243Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251088 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.727C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast cancer (Bhai_2021, Hu_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (ATM c.1924G>T, p.Glu642*), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34326862, 35449176). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142675). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
