Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.3922_3940dupCTCCCAGAGGAAGTTATTC(p.Gln1314ProfsTer11) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Q1314Q) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Endometrial carcinoma Pathogenic:2
- -
This variant was classified as: Pathogenic. The following ACMG criteria were applied in classifying this variant: PVS1,PM2,PP4,PP5. -
Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Carcinoma of colon Pathogenic:1
The MSH6 p.Gln1314ProfsX11 variant was not identified in the literature, nor was it identified in dbSNP, HGMD, UMD, “Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database”, “InSiGHT Colon Cancer Database”, “MMR Gene Unclassified Variants Database”, or COSMIC database. The p.Gln1314ProfsX11 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1314 and leads to a premature stop codon 11 codons downstream. 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 this is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 30608896). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 433928). This variant disrupts a region of the MSH6 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg1334Serfs*7) have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1314Profs*11) in the MSH6 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 47 amino acid(s) of the MSH6 protein. -
