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.

MSH6 links:

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]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 243 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26689913), colorectal cancer (PMID: 29245953), or an unspecified advanced cancer (PMID: 28873162). This variant has been identified in 3/251062 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) and in healthy control individuals (PMID: 32980694). 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. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MSH6 c.728G>A (p.Arg243His) missense change has a maximal subpopulation frequency of 0.0062% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting; https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-48025850-G-A). 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 an individual with colorectal cancer (PMID: 29245953). It has also been reported somatically in a case of hypermutated pediatric glioblastoma (PMID: 28912153). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PM2_Supporting, BP4. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MSH6 c.728G>A (p.Arg243His) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with colorectal cancer (PMID: 29245953 (2017)), prostate cancer (PMID: 35467778 (2022)), breast cancer (PMID: 35534704 (2022), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)), ovarian cancer (PMID: 26689913 (2015)), as well as in reportedly healthy individuals (PMIDs: 32658311 (2021), 32980694 (2020), 36243179 (2022)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000012 (3/251062 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R243H variant (also known as c.728G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 728. The arginine at codon 243 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in an individual diagnosed with ovarian cancer from a cohort of 4034 cancer cases from The Cancer Genome Atlas (Lu C et al. Nat Commun, 2015 Dec;6:10086). 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: MSH6 c.728G>A (p.Arg243His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 1.6e-05 in 252042 control chromosomes (gnomAD, Ackay_2021). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.728G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Prostate Cancer (Brady_2022), Ovarian Cancer (Lu_2015), and Breast Cancer (Dorling_2021) without evidence for causality. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Prostate Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: one classified the variant as benign and five as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
