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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
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]

The p.S285I variant (also known as c.854G>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 854. The serine at codon 285 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant was reported in the blood and tumor of an individual with a personal and family history colorectal cancer and was not detected in 199 controls (Kolodner RD et al. Cancer Res. 1999 Oct;59:5068-74). A functional study analyzed MSH6 missense alterations to determine their effect on biochemical activity of the MSH2-MSH6 heterodimer, this variant did not have a hydrolysis defect, suggesting that adenosine nucleotide processing is not disrupted (Cyr JL et al. J. Biol. Chem. 2008 Nov;283:31641-8). Another functional study determined that sub-cellular localization of the protein derived from this variant was comparable to wild-type, suggesting a proper MSH6 nuclear import (Belvederesi L et al. Fam. Cancer. 2012 Dec;11:675-80). However, another study reports that this variant showed a significant defect in nuclear localization as it is located within the general region of the nuclear localization signals, suggesting that cellular distribution may contribute to carcinogenesis (Gassman NR et al. PLoS ONE. 2011;6:e17907). This alteration was not found to affect mismatch repair function on an in-vitro assay measuring cells survival in response to DNA damaging agent 6-thioguanine exposure (Houlleberghs H et al. PLoS Genet. 2017 May;13:e1006765). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces serine with isoleucine at codon 285 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies investigating ATP binding, ATPase activity, mismatch repair activity, and nuclear localization have provided inconsistent results (PMID: 18790734, 21437237, 22851212, 28531214). This variant has been reported in at least one individual affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 10537275, 22851212), and an individual with unspecified cancer (PMID: 31391288). This variant has been identified in 2/251154 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.854G>T (p.Ser285Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251154 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.854G>T has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with familial colorectal cancer (Kolodner_1999). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, with conflicting results. The variant protein demonstrated modestly reduced ATPase activity, but does not appear to to alter DNA binding or DNA mismatch repair (e.g. Cyr_2008, Houlleberghs_2017). Studies assessing an impact on nuclear localization are conflicting (e.g. Gassman_2011, Belvederesi_2012). Evaluation of CRC tumor tissue from a patient with the variant showed loss of heterozygosity of the wild-type allele, but only low levels of microsatellite instability (Kolodner_1999). Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories cited the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with colon cancer or colon polyps (Kolodner et al., 1999; Tsai et al., 2019); Published functional studies are conflicting: does not affect nuclear transport of MSH6 nor ATP hydrolysis and is not resistant to DNA damaging agents, but does exhibit a decreased ability to bind ATP and alters subcellular localization (Cyr et al., 2008; Gassman et al., 2011; Belvederesi et al., 2012; Houlleberghs et al., 2017); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23621914, 22851212, 28531214, 25637381, 10537275, 21437237, 18790734, 27899619, 26333163, 11900875, 30787465, 34445333, 30374176) -
