In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26333163, 18809606, 25133505, 26689913, 29659569, 33008098, 33471991, 21120944, 17531815, 36243179, 35449176, 33057194, 35980532, 35982159, 35534704) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:3Benign:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 577 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with prostate (PMID: 29659569), ovarian (PMID: 33008098), breast (PMID: 33471991) and colorectal cancer (PMID: 18809606, 25133505). This variant has also been observed in healthy individuals in breast and pancreatic cancer case-control studies (PMID: 32980694, 33471991). This variant has been identified in 10/281608 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. -
c.1729C>T, located in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, is predicted to result in the substitution of arginine by cysteine at codon 577, p.(Arg577Cys). This variant is found in 10/267070 alleles at a frequency of 0.004% in the gnomAD v2.1.1 database, non-cancer dataset. Computational tools for this variant suggests no significant impact on splicing and intermediate-low effect on the protein function (MAPP+PolyPhen-2 prior probability for pathogenicity: 0.28). To our knowledge, no well-established functional studies have been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in multiple cancer-affected individuals with different tumor types (PMID: 33008098, 25133505, 29659569, 32980694 and data from our internal cohort of patients), and was reported in a breast cancer case-control study in 9 out of 60466 cases and 4 out of 53461 controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been reported in the ClinVar database (1x benign, 2x likely benign, 10x uncertain significance) and in LOVD (3x uncertain significance), and it has been classified as variant of uncertain significance by InSiGHT. Based on currently available information, the variant c.1729C>T should be considered an uncertain significance variant, according to MMR specific InSIGHT Guidelines, Draft v3.1. -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.1729C>T (p.Arg577Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, connector domain (IPR007860) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.8e-05 in 250210 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1729C>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with MSI stable colorectal cancer and in an individual with colorectal cancer who met at least one of the revised Bethesda guidelines, as well as in individuals affected with other cancers within the Lynch Syndrome tumor spectrum, without strong evidence for causality (e.g.Hampel_2008, Loizidou_2014, Paulo_2018, Barbosa_2020). In a large study evaluating breast cancer cases and controls in the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC), the variant was reported in 9/60466 cases, and in 4/53461 controls (Dorling_2021 through LOVD). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32658311, 33008098, 18809606, 25133505, 29659569, 33471991). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89218). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Lynch syndrome 5 Uncertain:2
This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -

Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 577 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with prostate (PMID: 29659569), ovarian (PMID: 33008098), breast (PMID: 33471991) and colorectal cancer (PMID: 18809606, 25133505).
