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.

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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 13, 2024Variant summary: MSH6 c.3674C>T (p.Thr1225Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the C-terminal region (IPR000432) and ATPase domain (Houlleberghs_MSH6_PLOS Genetics_2017) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 251248 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00012 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is slightly less than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Lynch Syndrome phenotype (0.00014), suggesting that the variant might be a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. The variant, c.3674C>T, has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome, colorectal cancer or other cancers, without strong evidence for causality (examples: Wijnen 1999, Hampel_2006, Nilbert_2009, Lagerstedt-Robinson_2007 and 2016, Bhai_2021, Djursby_2022, Fanale_2022, Okawa_2023). An endometrial tumor sample from one patient showed microsatellite instability but showed retention of MSH6 and MSH2 and loss of MLH1/PMS2 with MLH1 promoter hypermethylation (Hampel_2006). Thus these data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At least two publications reported experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, and showed no damaging effect of this variant (Drost 2011, Houlleberghs 2017). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22102614, 16885385, 28531214, 27601186, 17312306, 18566915, 26333163, 30982232, 10508506, 29945567, 34326862, 35904628, 35223509, 36243179). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89443). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthJan 05, 2023This missense variant replaces threonine with methionine at codon 1225 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). Functional studies have shown that this variant does not affect MSH6 protein mismatch repair function or result in DNA damage resistance (PMID: 22102614, 28531214). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 10508506, 18566915, 27601186), endometrial cancer (PMID: 16885385), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (PMID: 34598035) and breast cancer (PMID: 30982232, 32547938). This variant has also been observed in an individual affected with colorectal cancer, whose tumor showed microsatellite stability and normal MSH6 protein expression (PMID: 17312306). This variant has been identified in 22/282650 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 01, 2023The p.T1225M variant (also known as c.3674C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3674. The threonine at codon 1225 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been identified in multiple high-risk colorectal/endometrial cancer patients (Wijnen J et al. Nat. Genet., 1999 Oct;23:142-4; Hampel H et al. Cancer Res., 2006 Aug;66:7810-7; Lagerstedt Robinson K et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst., 2007 Feb;99:291-9; Nilbert M et al. Fam Cancer, 2009 Jun;8:75-83). However, functional analyses have demonstrated near-wild-type mismatch repair activity for the p.T1225M allele (Drost M et al. Hum Mutat., 2012 Mar;33:488-94; Houlleberghs H et al. PLoS Genet, 2017 May;13:e1006765). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Malignant tumor of breast Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MSH6 p.Thr1225Met variant was identified in 8 of 11332 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0007) from individuals or families with HNPCC, Lynch syndrome, endometrial cancer, or prostate adenocarcinoma (Hampel 2006, Lagerstedt-Robinson 2007, Lagerstedt-Robinson 2016, Lu 2015, Nilbert 2009). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs63750370) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry Genetics and three other submitters), Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and in Insight Hereditary Tumors Database (2x). The variant was not identified in the COGR, Cosmic, MutDB, UMD-LSDB, or the Zhejiang University database. The variant was identified in control databases in 24 of 276978 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00009 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: European in 19 of 126534 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), East Asian in 1 of 18864 chromosomes (freq: 0.00005), Finnish in 1 of 25784 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), and South Asian in 3 of 30782 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001); it was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, and Ashkenazi Jewish, populations. The p.Thr1225 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms, and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
