Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PS1_ModeratePM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.1239G>C(p.Trp413Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. W413R) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 413 of the MSH6 protein (p.Trp413Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 28135145; external communication, internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 428352). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MSH6 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Trp413 amino acid residue in MSH6. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MSH6-related conditions (internal data), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.W413C variant (also known as c.1239G>C), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1239. The tryptophan at codon 413 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (Yurgelun MB et al. J Clin Oncol, 2017 Apr;35:1086-1095). This variant has also been identified in a probands whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumor demonstrated high microsatellite instability and/or loss of MSH6 expression by immunohistochemistry (Li S et al. J. Med. Genet. 2020 Jan;57:62-69; External communication, Ambry internal data).This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on internal structural analysis, p.W413C is considered deleterious (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.
