Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Sep 06, 2019 | Variant summary: MSH6 c.926C>G (p.Ser309Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0003 in 251308 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0024 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 17 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colon Cancer phenotype (0.00014), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of South Asian origin. c.926C>G has been reported in the literature in individual(s) affected with advanced cancer (Mandelker_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colon Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as likely benign (2x) and uncertain significance (4x). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Apr 07, 2021 | This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. - |

MSH6-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Aug 31, 2023 | The MSH6 c.926C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser309Cys. This variant has been reported in at least one individual with advanced cancer (Mandelker et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28873162) and in a patient with ovarian cancer (Prokofyeva et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 37013556). This variant was also reported in two individuals with endometrial cancer; however, immunohistochemistry of the tumor found one individual had normal MSH6 staining while MSH6 was absent in the other (Chao et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31307542). This variant is reported in 0.24% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-48026048-C-G) and has conflicting interpretations regarding its pathogenicity in ClinVar, ranging from benign to a variant of uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/127607/). At this time, while we suspect this variant could be benign (based on minor allele frequency) the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. - |
Carcinoma of colon Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The MSH6 p.Ser309Cys variant was identified in 1 of 2080 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0005) from individuals with advanced cancer (Mandelker 2017). The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs544222338) as “with uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx, Ambry Genetics and likely benign by Color and Invitae) and UMD-LSDB (observed 1x). The variant was identified in control databases in 75 of 277,020 chromosomes (1 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.0003 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 24,004 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), European in 3 of 126,576 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002) and South Asian in 71 of 30,780 chromosomes (freq: 0.002). The variant was not observed in the Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, and Finnish populations. The p.Ser309Cys residue is not conserved in mammals and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. - |
