Published functional studies demonstrate no damaging effect: proficient mismatch repair activity (Houlleberghs et al., 2017); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23621914, 24728327, 31013963, 26845104, 12522549, 30159786, 30093976, 31386297, 24448499, 31391288, 29044863, 17531815, 21120944, 28531214, 33471991, 25085752, 36243179) -

The MSH6 c.3283C>T; p.Arg1095Cys variant (rs376243329; ClinVar ID: 127585) is reported in the literature in several individuals with cancer, though it was not demonstrated to be disease-causing (de Souza Timoteo 2018, Kiyozumi 2019, Li 2020). This variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.014% (18/129,178 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.859); however, however, a functional assay of mismatch repair activity suggests the variant has no impact on protein function (Houlleberghs 2017). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Arg1095Cys variant is uncertain at this time. References: de Souza Timoteo AR et al.

Lynch syndrome 5 Uncertain:2Benign:1
This variant is considered 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: 25085752]. This variant has been observed in conjunction with multiple pathogenic variants, reducing the likelihood this variant itself is pathogenic. -

This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 1095 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 observed in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 12522549, 26845104, 30093976, 31391288), breast cancer (PMID: 30159786) and an unspecified cancer (PMID: 31391288). This variant also has been observed in a pancreatic cancer case-control study in multiple unaffected individuals and absent in affected individuals (PMID: 32980694), and in a breast cancer case-control study in both affected and unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 23/282860 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 Benign:1Other:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.3283C>T (p.Arg1095Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.4e-05 in 251452 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00014 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is approximately the same as expected for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (0.00014 vs 0.00014), supporting a benign outcome. c.3283C>T has been reported in the literature in settings of multigene cancer panel testing among individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome (example Shirts_2015, Kanchi_2014, Li_2020). One of these reports estimated the tumor characteristic likelihood ratio (TCLR) for this variant as likely benign (Li_2020). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant in an MMR (mismatch repair) assay (Houlleberghs_2017). Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (likely benign, n=2; VUS, n=6). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation and at-least one submitter has re-classified this variant as likely benign since its previous evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was re-classified as likely benign. -
