Lynch syndrome Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital | Oct 15, 2020 | The MSH6 c.3203G>A (p.Arg1068Gln) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.028% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/2-48030589-G-A). Five of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4), but these predictions have not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has been reported in individuals with colorectal cancer and microsatellite stability or normal mismatch repair immunohistochemistry in the tumor (PMID: 26845104, 27978560). It has also been reported in individuals with sporadic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PMID: 32659497, 28767289), breast cancer (PMID: 25503501), epithelial ovarian cancer (PMID: 23047549), and pediatric medulloblastoma (PMID: 26580448). Data submitted to ClinVar indicates that this variant did not segregate with disease in a family study (ClinVar Accession: SCV000186214.6). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BP4. - |

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:3
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Aug 28, 2018 | This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. - |

MSH6-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Apr 30, 2024 | The MSH6 c.3203G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1068Gln. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with various cancers including colorectal, breast, ovarian, thyroid, and pancreatic (see for example, Table 2, Okkels et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22495361; Table S2, Shindo et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28767289; Table S2, Huang et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29625052, Table 2, Maxwell et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25503501). It has also been reported in 0.028% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations ranging from benign to uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/92576/). The Arg1068 residue of the MSH6 protein is weakly conserved throughout evolution and multiple species have glutamine (Gln) at this amino acid position. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. - |

Malignant tumor of breast Benign:1
Likely benign, no assertion criteria provided | clinical testing | Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System | - | The MSH6 p.Arg1068Gln variant was identified in 3 of 3116 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.00096) from individuals or families with colorectal cancer, HNPCC, or breast cancer (Hampel 2018, Maxwell 2015, Okkels 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs398123230) as "With Uncertain significance, other allele", in ClinVar and Clinvitae (classified as likely benign by Ambry Genetics, Invitae and GeneDx; classified as uncertain significance by EGL, University of Washington, Illumina, Quest Diagnostics and Prevention Genetics), and UMD-LSDB (found to be co-occurring with a pathogenic MSH6 variant: c.2764C>T, p.Arg922X in 2 cases). The variant was not identified in COSMIC, MutDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, or Insight Hereditary Tumors databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 31 of 277070 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 7 of 24028 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), Latino in 1 of 34386 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003), European Non-Finnish in 23 of 126620 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002); it was not observed in the Other, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Arg1068 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein. 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; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. - |
