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]

In the published literature, this variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMIDs: 15782118 (2005), 16636019 (2006), 16408224 (2006), 22495361 (2012), 28466842 (2017)), ovarian cancer (PMID: 23047549 (2012)), breast cancer (PMIDs: 31882575 (2019), 32547938 (2020), 33471991 (2021)), and biliary tract cancer (PMID: 36243179 (2022)). It has also been reported in healthy individuals (PMIDs: 28466842 (2017), 33471991 (2021)). An experimental study reports the variant slightly reduces proper gene function (PMID: 22102614 (2012)), however further evidence is needed to determine the global impact of the variant. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00054 (14/26130 chromosomes in Swedish subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

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. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.3259C>T (p.Pro1087Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0081 in 776290 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00024 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer phenotype (0.00014). c.3259C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colorectal carcinoma (Ohmiya 2001, Domingo 2005, Niessen 2006, Okkels 2012), ovarian cancer (Pal 2012), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (Hu 2016), breast cancer (Hu_2022) and bilary tract cancer (Okawa_2023). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer/Lynch syndrome. Moreover, in 3 of the reported colorectal cancer cases, tumor immunohistochemistry was normal, and in 2 of these cases microsatellite instability (MSI) was reported to be low. One publication assessing associated cancer risks of several variants in the Icelandic population, suggests that the variant is benign based on the population frequency and the low odds ratio for colorectal cancer (Haraldsdottir 2017). Furthermore, in this study, this variant was observed among 2 patients with promoter hypermethylation of MLH1 and 1 patient with absent MLH1/PMS2 on tumor IHC, suggestive of sporadic (MLH1 hypermethylation) or an alternate molecular basis of disease. At least one publication reported experimental evidence demonstrating that the variant results in an in vitro mismatch repair assay repair efficiency of 88% compared to the wild type, suggesting no damaging effect for this variant (Drost_2011). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15782118, 22102614, 28466842, 26483394, 35449176, 16408224, 11470537, 22495361, 23047549, 23621914, 36243179). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89360). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

The MSH6 c.3259C>T (p.Pro1087Ser) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.024% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a deleterious effect on protein function, however functional studies suggest that this variant does not substantially impact mismatch repair efficiency (PMID: 22102614). This variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer (PMID: 16636019, 23047549, 26483394). In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -
