Genes affected
MSH6 (HGNC:7329): (mutS homolog 6) This gene encodes a member of the DNA mismatch repair MutS family. In E. coli, the MutS protein helps in the recognition of mismatched nucleotides prior to their repair. A highly conserved region of approximately 150 aa, called the Walker-A adenine nucleotide binding motif, exists in MutS homologs. The encoded protein heterodimerizes with MSH2 to form a mismatch recognition complex that functions as a bidirectional molecular switch that exchanges ADP and ATP as DNA mismatches are bound and dissociated. Mutations in this gene may be associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer, colorectal cancer, and endometrial cancer. Transcripts variants encoding different isoforms have been described.

FBXO11 (HGNC:13590): (F-box protein 11) This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbxs class. It can function as an arginine methyltransferase that symmetrically dimethylates arginine residues, and it acts as an adaptor protein to mediate the neddylation of p53, which leads to the suppression of p53 function. This gene is known to be down-regulated in melanocytes from patients with vitiligo, a skin disorder that results in depigmentation. Polymorphisms in this gene are associated with chronic otitis media with effusion and recurrent otitis media (COME/ROM), a hearing loss disorder, and the knockout of the homologous mouse gene results in the deaf mouse mutant Jeff (Jf), a single gene model of otitis media. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelresearchInternational Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT)Sep 05, 2013Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon -
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Arg732X variant was identified in 2 of 1692 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with early-onset colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome (Giráldez 2010, Plaschke 2004). The tumours from the positive probands in these studies showed loss of MSH6 protein by immunohistochemistry; one tumour also showed high microsatellite instability. The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs63751127) “With Pathogenic allele”, GeneInsight COGR database (classified as pathogenic by a clinical laboratory), HGMD, “Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database”, InSiGHT Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, UMD (2X as a “causal” variant), and in the ClinVar database (classified as a pathogenic by all three submitters: InSiGHT, Ambry Genetics, and GeneDx). The p.Arg732X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 732, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the MSH6 gene are an established mechanism of disease in Lynch syndrome and this is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineSep 13, 2023The p.Arg732X variant in MSH6 has been reported in at least 5 individuals with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) and related tumors (Plaschke 2004 PMID: 15483016, Steinke 2008 PMID: 18301448, Baglietto 2010 PMID: 20028993, Giraldez 2010 PMID: 20924129, Song 2014 PMID: 24728189). This variant has also been identified in 0.001% (1/68036) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org, v.3.1.2). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 732, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism for Lynch syndrome. Moreover, this variant was classified as pathogenic on Sept. 05, 2013 by the ClinGen approved InSiGHT expert panel (Variation ID: 89262). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_Supporting, PVS1, PS4_Moderate. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 02, 2024The p.R732* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2194C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2194. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals satisfying HNPCC/Lynch syndrome clinical criteria with tumors showing microsatellite instability and absence of MSH6 staining on IHC (Plaschke J et al. J. Clin Oncol. 2004;22:4486-4494; Steinke V et al. Eur J Hum Genet. 2008 May;16(5):587-92). This alteration has also been reported in individuals diagnosed with breast, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate and uterine cancers (Song H et al. Hum Mol Genet, 2014 Sep;23:4703-9; Maxwell KN et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2016 May;98:801-817; Susswein LR et al. Genet. Med. 2016 Aug;18:823-32; Roberts ME et al. Genet Med, 2018 10;20:1167-1174; Dondi G et al. Int J Mol Sci, 2020 Sep;21:; Mannucci A et al. Eur J Gastroenterol Hepatol, 2020 03;32:345-349; Wu Y et al. Eur Urol Oncol, 2020 04;3:224-230). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 29, 2022Variant summary: MSH6 c.2194C>T (p.Arg732X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory and also observed in the HGMD database. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250888 control chromosomes. c.2194C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (Example: Susswein_2015, Rossi_2017, Baglietto_2010, Song_2014, Jiang_2019 etc.). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
