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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1767delT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1767, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.P591Qfs*19). This variant has been reported in one Australian Lynch syndrome individual (Sjursen W et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med. 2016 Mar;4:223-31). 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. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MSH6 p.Pro591Glnfs*19 variant was identified in 1 of 1668 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from individuals or families with Lynch syndrome (Sjursen 2016). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs1114167765) as "With Pathogenic allele" and ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by Invitae and Ambry Genetics). The variant was not identified in the UMD-LSDB database. The variant was not identified in the following control databases: the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016) or the Genome Aggregation Database (Feb 27, 2017). The c.1767del variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 591 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 609. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the MSH6 gene are an established mechanism of disease in Lynch syndrome and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. Further, this variant was identified by our laboratory in a patient with an MSH6-deficient endometrial tumour. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: MSH6 c.1767delT (p.Pro591GlnfsX19) 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 250300 control chromosomes. c.1767delT has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Lynch Syndrome and Uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma (Sjursen_2016, Lu_2015). These data indicate that the variant is likely associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six 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 pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro591Glnfs*19) 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 (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 27064304). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 428393). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
