Genes affected

MSH3 (HGNC:7326): (mutS homolog 3) The protein encoded by this gene forms a heterodimer with MSH2 to form MutS beta, part of the post-replicative DNA mismatch repair system. MutS beta initiates mismatch repair by binding to a mismatch and then forming a complex with MutL alpha heterodimer. This gene contains a polymorphic 9 bp tandem repeat sequence in the first exon. The repeat is present 6 times in the reference genome sequence and 3-7 repeats have been reported. Defects in this gene are a cause of susceptibility to endometrial cancer.

DHFR (HGNC:2861): (dihydrofolate reductase) Dihydrofolate reductase converts dihydrofolate into tetrahydrofolate, a methyl group shuttle required for the de novo synthesis of purines, thymidylic acid, and certain amino acids. While the functional dihydrofolate reductase gene has been mapped to chromosome 5, multiple intronless processed pseudogenes or dihydrofolate reductase-like genes have been identified on separate chromosomes. Dihydrofolate reductase deficiency has been linked to megaloblastic anemia. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1736899). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH3-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the MSH3 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 115. -

The p.M1? variant (also known as c.3G>A) is located in coding exon 1 of the MSH3 gene and results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon. Variations that modify the initiation codon (ATG) are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame; however, there is an in-frame methionine 115 amino acids from the initiation site, which may result in N-terminal truncation of unknown functional significance. In addition, internal structural analysis indicates this variant is not anticipated to result in a decrease in structural stability (Ambry internal data). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
