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]

Variant summary: MSH6 c.2398G>C (p.Val800Leu) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.2e-05 in 250774 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00017 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer phenotype (0.00014). c.2398G>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with ovarian cancer (Pal_2012), renal cell carcinoma (Lu_2015), Breast Cancer (Wang_2018) and colorectal cancer (Kim_2004, Kolodner_1999, Shirts_2015), and in one report with positive segregation data, although the number of affected individuals in the family was not reported (Liccardo_2017). Some reports classified the variant as uncertain significance (example: Murphy_2022 and Tsaousis_2019). Co-occurrence with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (BRCA1 c.1252G>T, p.Glu418Ter), providing supporting evidence for a benign role for the variant (Wang_2018). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. This variant had 91.8% activity in an in vitro MMR activity (CIMRA) assay supporting a benign role for this variant (Drost_2020). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 10537275, 15340264, 22290698, 23047549, 23621914, 26689913, 26845104, 28481244, 30982232, 31159747, 31965077, 35128723). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89279). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

The MSH6 c.2398G>C; p.Val800Leu variant (rs61748083) is reported in the literature in individuals with colorectal cancer or ovarian cancer (Kim 2004, Kolodner 1999, Pal 2012, Shirts 2016), but is also reported in a healthy control (Kolodner 1999). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 89279). It is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.009% (26/282172 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The valine at codon 800 is weakly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is tolerated. However, due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. REFERENCES Kim JC et al.

The MSH6 c.2398G>C (p.Val800Leu) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.017% in the gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-48027520-G-C). Five of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4), but these predictions have not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMID: 26845104, 28481244, 10537275). In case control studies, this variant was identified in one control participant and no colorectal cancer patients (PMID: 30267214), while in another case control study the variant was identified at a similar frequency in colorectal cancer cases and normal controls (PMID: 10537275). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BP4. -

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MSH6 c.2398G>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val800Leu. This variant has been reported in individuals with a history of ovarian and colorectal cancer (Kolodner et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10537275; Supplementary Table 1, Pal et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 23047549; Table S1, Shirts et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26845104), but was also identified in unaffected control cohorts (Kolodner et al. 1999. PubMed ID: 10537275; Supplementary Table 1, Amendola et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25637381). This variant was reported in a family with colorectal cancer who had negative testing in MLH1 and MSH2, and also reported to segregate with Lynch syndrome phenotypes, although segregation details were not provided (Table 1, Liccardo et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28481244). This variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. MSH6-specific algorithms predict that this variant is neutral (http://structure.bmc.lu.se/PON-MMR2/; Ali et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22290698). This variant has conflicting evidence in ClinVar including interpretations of likely benign and uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/89279/?new_evidence=false). Taken together, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MSH6 p.Val800Leu variant was identified in 1 of 558 proband chromosomes (frequency 0.002) from individuals with colorectal cancer (Kim 2004, Kolodner 1999) and was identified in 1 of 1038 control chromosomes (frequency 0.001) from these studies, increasing the likelihood that this may be a low frequency polymorphism. This variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID# rs61748083) “with untested allele”, in the Exome Variant Server ESP Project with a frequency of 0.0002 in European American alleles, and in the HGMD, MutDB, MMR DB, and InSIGHT Colon Cancer databases. The p.Val800 residue is not conserved in mammals and lower organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. In addition, two in silico studies which assessed the impact of the variant on protein structure and function predicted this variant was neutral (Ali 2012, Terui 2013). However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as predicted benign. -
