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: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces asparagine with threonine at codon 455 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH6-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 15/251056 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. -

The MSH6 c.1364A>C (p.Asn455Thr) variant has been reported in individuals with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (PMID: 26689913 (2015)), bladder cancer (PMID: 26845104 (2016)), pancreatic cancer (PMID: 30883245 (2019)), and thyroid cancer and melanoma (PMID: 32885271 (2021)). This variant has also been observed in reportedly healthy individuals (PMID: 22703879 (2012), 36243179 (2022)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00079 (8/10070 chromosomes in Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.1364A>C (p.Asn455Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS-like, N-terminal domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6e-05 in 251056 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (6e-05 vs 0.00014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1364A>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer or other type of cancer (examples: Shirts_2015, Lu_2015, Abe_2019). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30883245, 22703879, 26689913, 26845104, 23621914). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=6) or likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

The MSH6 p.Asn455Thr variant was identified in 1 of 1142 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) in individuals with atherosclerosis phenotypes undergoing secondary (incidental) variant detection by exome sequencing (Johnston 2012_ 22703879). A bioinformatic tool, CoDP ((Combination of the Different Properties), that integrates 3 prediction models (MAPP, PolyPhen-2 and SIFT) and 2 structural properties, found that the variant had no impact on the MSH6 protein (Terui 2013 23621914). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs200938360) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (as uncertain significance by Ambry Genetics, Invitae, University of Washington, GeneDx, and Counsyl), Clinvitae (4x as uncertain significance), LOVD 3.0 (1x), and in control databases in 13 of 245818 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00005 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include African in 1 of 15302 chromosomes (freq: 0.00007), Latino in 4 of 33544 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European Non-Finnish in 1 of 111452 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), Ashkenazi Jewish in 7 of 9842 chromosomes (freq: 0.0007), while not observed in the Other, East Asian, European Finnish and South Asian populations. The variant was not identified in Cosmic, MutDB, UMD-LSDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The p.Asn455 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms however four out of five computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood the variant Thr impacts the protein; this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) 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. -
