Submissions by phenotype
Lynch syndrome 5 Benign:2
This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is intronic and is not expected to impact mRNA splicing. -
This submission and the accompanying classification are no longer maintained by the submitter. For more information on current observations and classification, please contact variantquestions@myriad.com. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2
- -
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:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.3647-6T>C 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. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 245942 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00091 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 6 fold of 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. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3647-6T>C in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three 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 benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

The MSH6 c.3647-6T>C variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, UMD-LSDB, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, Insight Hereditary Tumors Database, databases. The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs182871847) as “With Likely benign, other allele”, ClinVar (classified benign by Invitae and likely benign by Counsyl and Color Genomics Inc.), Clinvitae (2x), and in control databases in 31 of 245942 chromosomes (1 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.0003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: Other in 1 of 5462 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), Latino in 1 of 33526 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003), European Non-Finnish in 1 of 111496 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), and South Asian in 28 (1 homozygous) of 30780 chromosomes (freq: 0.0009); it was not observed in the African, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, and European Finnish populations. In addition, 1 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predicted a >10% difference in splicing. The variant was identified by our laboratory in 1 individual with breast cancer, co-occurring with a pathogenic BRCA1 variant (c.5074+1G>A) increasing the likelihood that the variant does not have clinical significance. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as likely benign. -
