not provided Uncertain:1
This variant is denoted MSH6 c.1787T>C at the cDNA level, p.Phe596Ser (F596S) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Phenylalanine to a Serine (TTT>TCT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH6 Phe596Ser was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Phenylalanine and Serine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. MSH6 Phe596Ser occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is located in domain II of the MutS domain (Terui 2013). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether MSH6 Phe596Ser is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 596 of the MSH6 protein (p.Phe596Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH6-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 419291). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MSH6 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.F596S variant (also known as c.1787T>C), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 1787. The phenylalanine at codon 596 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
