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]

not specified Benign:3
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 23, 2018Variant summary: MSH6 c.3557-3A>T alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. These predictions were confirmed as the variant was found to not affect mRNA splicing or protein expression (Barnetson_2008). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00034 in 230238 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0024 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 17-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Lynch Syndrome phenotype (0.00014), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of South Asian origin. c.3557-3A>T has been reported in the literature an individuals affected with colorectal cancer (Barnetson_2008). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. Six ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant five times as likely benign/benign and once as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 11, 2019This alteration is classified as 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. -
Lynch syndrome 5 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Carcinoma of colon Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MSH6 c.3557-3A>T variant was identified in 1 of 1864 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with colorectal cancer and was not identified in 2242 control chromosomes from healthy individuals (Barnetson 2008). The variant was also identified in the following databases: dbSNP (ID: rs41295274), ClinVar (classified as benign by Insight, Color Genomics, QDNISJC; classified as likely benign by Ambry Genetics, Invitae), Clinvitae, Cosmic, UMD-LSDB (1X as neutral), Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and the Insight Hereditary Tumors Database (class1). The variant was not identified in the COGR or Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 79 of 230238 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: Other in 2 of 4924 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004), Latino in 2 of 30982 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European in 10 of 105232 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), and South Asian in 65 of 27326 chromosomes (freq: 0.002); it was not observed in the African, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or Finnish populations. The c.3557-3A>T variant is located in the 3' splice region but does not affect the invariant -1 and -2 positions. However, positions -3 and -5 to -12 are part of the splicing consensus sequence and variants involving these positions sometimes affect splicing. In addition, 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. However, RNA analysis for exon skipping in population study by Barnetson (2008) showed the variant has no effect on mRNA splicing or protein expression. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as likely benign. -
