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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMar 23, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 988 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 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 breast cancer (PMID: 35039564), and in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome and colorectal cancer (PMID: 27601186, 30267214). This variant has been identified in 5/248524 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 08, 2023The p.R988C variant (also known as c.2962C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2962. The arginine at codon 988 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was previously identified in a Swedish family with Lynch syndrome, but clinical details were not provided (Lagerstedt-Robinson K et al. Oncol. Rep. 2016 Nov;36(5):2823-2835). In another study, this variant was detected in 1/165 colorectal cancer and/or polyposis patients and was not identified in 2512 control individuals from a healthy population database (Rosenthal EA et al. Hum Genet, 2018 Oct;137:795-806). This variant has also been reported in a South African patient with early onset infiltrating ductal carcinoma, but no family history information was provided (Eygelaar D et al. Sci Rep, 2022 Jan;12:802). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 24, 2022Variant summary: MSH6 c.2962C>T (p.Arg988Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. A computer modelling approach for predicting the impact of MSH6 variants on protein function scored the variant as likely to impair function (Terui_2013) however, to our knowledge this has not yet been tested by a functional assay. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.8e-05 in 217122 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.2962C>T has been reported in the literature in an individual with breast cancer (Eygelaar_2022) and an individual with suspected Lynch Syndrome (Lagerstedt-Robinson_2016). However, these report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 28, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 988 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373).

This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 35039564), and in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome and colorectal cancer (PMID: 27601186, 30267214). This variant has been identified in 5/248524 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. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 988 of the MSH6 protein (p.Arg988Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs61753795, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 27601186). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237172). An algorithm developed specifically for the MSH6 gene suggests that this missense change is likely to be deleterious (PMID: 23621914). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
