Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.845dupT(p.Asp284GlyfsTer2) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,878 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V282V) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Lynch syndrome Pathogenic:2
Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon -
The p.Asp284GlyfsX2 variant in MSH6 has been identified in 2 individuals with MSH6-associated cancer (Steinke 2008 PMID: 18301448, LMM pers. comm.). It was absent from large population studies. This variant was classified as Pathogenic on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (Variation ID 89570). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 284 and leads to a premature termination codon 2 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Supporting. -
Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a frameshift predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp284Glyfs*2) 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 colorectal cancer (PMID: 18301448). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89570). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.845dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 845, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.D284G*2). This variant has been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome/HNPCC (Steinke V et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2008 May;16:587-92; Nowak JA et al. J Mol Diagn, 2017 01;19:84-91). 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. -
