The p.Arg495X variant in MSH6 has been reported in at least 7 individuals with MSH6-associated cancers and at least 1 individual with breast cancer (Sjursen 2010 PMID: 20587412, Bonadona 2011 PMID: 21642682, Beggs 2013 PMID: 23294250, Carneiro da Silva 2015 PMID: 26437257, Lagerstedt-Robinson 2016 PMID: 27601186, Rossi 2017 PMID: 28874130, Sun 2017 PMID: 28724667, Tian 2019 PMID: 31054147). It has also been identified in 0.003% (1/30616) of South Asian chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 495, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (ClinVar Variation ID 89197). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Moderate. -
Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon -
- -
- -
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 20587412, 21642682, 23294250, 26437257, 27601186, 27013479, 28874130) and breast cancer (PMID: 33471991, 28724667). This variant has been identified in 1/251182 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:3
This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant.

This variant has been identified in 1/251182 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.R495* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1483C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1483. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This mutation has been identified in multiple individuals/families with HNPCC/Lynch syndrome based on personal and family history (Sjursen W et al. J. Med. Genet. 2010 Sep;47:579-85; Dominguez-Valentin M et al. BMC Urol. 2016 Mar;16:15; Beggs AD et al. Breast J. Jan;19:193-5). This alteration has been identified in a cohort of Swedish Lynch syndrome families (Lagerstedt-Robinson K et al. Oncol. Rep. 2016 Nov;36:2823-2835) and in a cohort of Latin American patients suspected of having Lynch syndrome (Rossi BM et al. BMC Cancer. 2017 Sep;17:623). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 8085 consecutive unselected Chinese breast cancer patients who underwent multi-gene panel testing. (Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:2
ACMG criteria used to clasify this variant:PVS1, PS4, PM2_SUP -
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Carcinoma of colon Pathogenic:1
The p.Arg495X variant has been reported in the HGMD, COSMIC, InSiGHT databases and once in the literature in 5 out of 1028 proband chromosomes in individuals with HNPCC. However, no controls were tested to establish the frequency of the variant in the general population (Sjursen 2010). The variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 495 which is predicted to cause premature truncation of the protein product. This is a loss of function DNA variant and loss of function the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism for Lynch syndrome. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.1483C>T (p.Arg495X) 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. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251182 control chromosomes. c.1483C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome (Bonadona_2011). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 21642682). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89197). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg495*) 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 present in population databases (rs587779212, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 20587412, 21642682, 26437257, 27601186). Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this MSH6 variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 1,370,736 individuals referred to our laboratory for MSH6 testing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89197). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
