Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.3699_3702dupAGAA(p.Leu1235ArgfsTer4) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. L1235L) has been classified as Benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Variant summary: MSH6 c.3699_3702dupAGAA (p.Leu1235ArgfsX4) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Another variant, affecting the same nucleotide positions, and leading to a similar protein level change, c.3699_3702delAGAA (p.Lys1233fsX6) and several other truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.3799_3800delAT (p.Met1267fsX7), c.3840_3846delGGAGACT (p.Glu1281fsX44), c.3939_3940dupTC (p.Gln1314fsX14)). The variant was absent in 246004 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.3699_3702dupAGAA, has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (Hansen 2014). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation, and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu1235Argfs*4) in the MSH6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18269114, 24362816). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 24689082). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218069). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.3699_3702dupAGAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 8 of the MSH6 gene, results from a duplication of AGAA at nucleotide position 3699, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.L1235Rfs*4). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
