Lynch syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces histidine with tyrosine at codon 501 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 been reported in an individual affected with urothelial carcinoma (PMID: 35372080), and individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 32885271), as well as an individual with colorectal cancer that tested positive for MLH1 methylation and demonstrated loss of MLH1 and PMS2 protein via immunohistochemistry (PMID: 32661327). This variant has been identified in 10/282596 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 MSH6 p.His501Tyr variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the UMD-LSDB database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs779411998) as “with uncertain significance allele” and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, Ambry Genetics and Color). The variant was identified in control databases in 10 of 282,596 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00004 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the East Asian population in 10 of 19,946 chromosomes (freq: 0.0005), increasing the likelihood that this variant does not have clinical significance; it was not observed in the African, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, Finnish, European, Other or South Asian populations. The p.His501 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms however four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
The p.H501Y variant (also known as c.1501C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1501. The histidine at codon 501 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in an individuals diagnosed with breast, colorectal and pancreatic cancer (Wang J et al. Cancer Med, 2019 05;8:2074-2084; Xiao B et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2020 11;28:1555-1562; Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). 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.

Lynch syndrome 1 Uncertain:1
MSH6-related disorder Uncertain:1
The MSH6 c.1501C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.His501Tyr. This variant has been reported in an individual with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (Table 2, Guan et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35372080). This variant is reported in 0.050% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-48026623-C-T) and is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/232251/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
