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]

Variant summary: MSH6 c.3848_3850dupTTA (p.Ile1283dup) results in an in-frame duplication with the insertion of one amino acid into the C-terminal domain of the MSH6 protein (IPR000432). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.5e-05 in 282272 control chromosomes, predominantly found in the European subpopulation with an allele frequency of 5.4e-05 in the gnomAD database. However, the variant was found at an even higher frequency in the Swedish (5/26108 alleles; allele frequency of ~0.0002); and this frequency is higher than the maximum expected for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Lynch Syndrome phenotype (0.00014), suggesting a benign role for the variant. The variant, c.3848_3850dupTTA, has been reported in the literature in Scandinavian individuals affected with colon cancer and suspected Lynch syndrome (Hansen_2014, Lagerstedt-Robinson_2016, Haraldsdottir_2017), but was also reported to be found with similar allele frequencies among healthy Icelandic controls (Haraldsdottir_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The MSH6 c.3848_3850dup (p.Ile1283dup) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals/families with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 27601186 (2016)). It was also reported in 3 Icelandic individuals with colorectal cancer, and observed in similar frequency in healthy controls in a case-control study (PMID: 28466842 (2017)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000054 (7/128874 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes an in-frame duplication of one amino acid of the MSH6 protein. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome-associated disease or suspected of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 24689082, 27601186, 28466842). However, several individuals affected with colorectal cancer had tumors that displayed intact protein via immunohistochemistry analysis and the variant has also been identified in healthy controls, with no significant association with colorectal cancer found in the study population (PMID: 28466842). This variant has been identified in 7/282272 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.3848_3850dupTTA variant (also known as p.I1283dup), located in coding exon 9 of the MSH6 gene, results from an in-frame duplication of TTA at nucleotide positions 3848 to 3850. This results in the duplication of an extra isoleucine residue at codon 1283. This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals with personal and/or family history consistent with Lynch syndrome (Lagerstedt-Robinson K et al. Oncol. Rep., 2016 Nov;36:2823-2835; Haraldsdottir S et al. Nat Commun, 2017 05;8:14755). However, this variant has been identified in multiple probands whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumors demonstrated normal mismatch repair protein expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Ambry internal data; Haraldsdottir S et al. Nat Commun, 2017 05;8:14755). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
