Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.2845C>T(p.Gln949*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,792 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Submissions by phenotype
Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.2845C>T (p.Gln949X) 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. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 250324 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2845C>T in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln949*) 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 not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MSH6-related conditions. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The p.Q949* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2845C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2845. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. 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. -
