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]

This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 1142 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. A functional assay to detect DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency in MSH6 deficient mouse embryonic stem cells found that the variant protein is likely MMR proficient (PMID: 28531214). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 19250818, 23523604), and in individuals affected with breast and/or ovarian cancer (PMID: 24549055, 32885271, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 7/282732 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 p.T1142M variant (also known as c.3425C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3425. The threonine at codon 1142 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was reported in a Spanish family meeting Amsterdam criteria and segregated with disease in 2/2 affected relatives; however, tumor testing in this family demonstrated microsatellite stability and normal staining on IHC (Perez-Cabornero L et al. Eur. J. Cancer. 2009 May;45:1485-93; Perez-Cabornero L et al. J Mol Diagn. 2013 May;15:380-90). This alteration was reported in a cohort of suspected hereditary breast and ovarian cancer patients who underwent multi-gene panel testing (Cast&eacute;ra L et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet., 2014 Nov;22:1305-13). This variant was also observed in 2/3251 individuals who met eligibility criteria for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome (Lerner-Ellis J et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol, 2021 Mar;147:871-879). In a functional study that utilized a genetic screening method to test mismatch repair activity in murine embryonic stem cells, p.T1142M did not demonstrate attenuated mismatch repair (Houlleberghs H et al. PLoS Genet., 2017 May;13:e1006765). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.3425C>T (p.Thr1142Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal domain (IPR000432) 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 3.7e-05 in 1614044 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 7.8e-05 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance c.3425C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome, hereditary breast and ovarian cancer or prostate cancer (example, Perez-Cabornero_2013, Castera_2014, Lerner-Ellis_2021, Yang_2024). These reports 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 on mismatch repair (MMR) activity (Houlleberghs_2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 24549055, 23523604, 28531214, 32885271, 37937776, 38327772). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89381). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 1142 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). A functional assay to detect DNA mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency in MSH6 deficient mouse embryonic stem cells found that the variant protein is likely MMR proficient (PMID: 28531214). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 19250818, 23523604, Goverde 2018) and an individual suspected to be affected with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 24549055). This variant has been identified in 7/282732 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. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MSH6 p.Thr1142Met variant was identified in 3 of 1454 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with breast cancer/ovarian cancer, Lynch Syndrome, and polyps (Castera 2014, Perez-Cabornero 2009, Perez-Cabornero 2013). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs267608089) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (5x, uncertain significance), Clinvitae (3x, uncertain significance), Cosmic (2x, confirmed somatic, in a carcinoma of the liver), Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database (1x, uncertain significance), Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was not identified in MutDB, UMD-LSDB, or the Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 7 of 277124 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). A functional study used an oligonucleotide directed mutagenesis screen in mouse embryonic stem cells to determine pathogenicity for MSH6 variants (Houlleberghs 2017). The c.3425C>T variant was classified as "not pathogenic" by this method. The p.Thr1142 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the 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 also 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. -
