Lynch syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with tyrosine at codon 943 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25479140) and at least 5 individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627, 33471991, LOVD variant #0000747836). This variant has been identified in 13/281888 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.Asp943Tyr variant was identified in 1 of 580 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with pancreatic cancer (Grant_2015_25479140). A bioinformatics tool, CoDP (Combination of the Different Properties) integrating the prediction results of three methods (MAPP, PolyPhen-2 and SIFT) and two structural properties, found the variant impacted the MSH6 protein (Terui_2013_23621914). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs143520357) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, GeneDx, Invitae, Counsyl, Color Genomics), Clinvitae (4x), and in control databases in 13 of 276196 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00005 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was identified in the European Non-Finnish population in 13 of 125940 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001); and was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish and South Asian populations. The variant was not identified in the COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, UMD-LSDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database or the Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The p.Asp943 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms, and four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the Tyr variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) 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. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.

This submission and the accompanying classification are no longer maintained by the submitter. For more information on current observations and classification, please contact variantquestions@myriad.com.
This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726].
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
This missense variant replaces aspartic acid with tyrosine at codon 943 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with pancreatic cancer (PMID: 25479140) and at least 5 individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 13/281888 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.
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.
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.2827G>T (p.Asp943Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 250490 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Lynch Syndrome (4.8e-05 vs 0.00014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2827G>T has been observed in individual(s) affected with pancreatic, colorectal, or breast cancer (Grant_2015, Pearlman_2021, Tung_2015, Bhai_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. 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, 25479140, 34250417, 25186627). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 142495). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
MSH6-related disorder Uncertain:1
The MSH6 c.2827G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Asp943Tyr. This variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (Table S2, Tung et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25186627; Table S4, Bhai et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34326862; Supplemental File, Breast Cancer Association Consortium et al 2021. PubMed ID: 33471991) or pancreatic cancer (Table S1, Grant et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25479140). In each of these reports this variant was reported along with the MSH6 c.2027A>G (p.Lys676Arg) variant suggesting they are on the same allele. This variant is reported in 0.010% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar of likely benign and uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/142495/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
