Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.1739C>A(p.Ser580*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a 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. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S580S) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Lynch syndrome 5 Pathogenic:1
This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation. -
Lynch syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.1739C>A variant in the MSH6 gene is located on the exon 4 and introduces a premature translation termination codon (p.Ser580*), resulting in an absent or disrupted protein product. The other protein termination codon variants located in the same exon (p.Tyr524*, p.Cys687*) have been interpreted as pathogenic by the expert panel (ClinVar ID: 89202, 89246). Loss-of-function variants of MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 30376427, 18269114, 29345684). This variant has been reported in ClinVar (ID: 841555). The variant is rare (1/1614078 chromosomes) in general population according to gnomAD. Therefore, the c.1739C>A (p.Ser580*) variant in the MSH6 gene has been classified as pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
The MSH6 p.Ser580* variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the dbSNP, ClinVar, or UMD-LSDB databases. 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 p.Ser580* variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 580 which is predicted to lead to 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. In addition, this variant was identified in our laboratory in a patient with an MSH6-deficient colorectal tumour. 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 sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser580*) 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 variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH6-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 841555). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
