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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxOct 01, 2024Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Observed in patients with Lynch-related cancers consistent with pathogenic variants in this gene (PMID: 27064304); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 37307877, 17531815, 21120944, 12019211, 27064304) -
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The MSH6 p.Glu1310Ilefs*20 variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the UMD-LSDB database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs587779296) as "With Pathogenic allele", ClinVar (classified as pathogenic by Invitae, GeneDx, and InSight), and Insight Hereditary Tumors Database (2x as class5). 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 c.3920_3927dup variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1310 and leads to a premature stop codon at position 1329. 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 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
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJul 09, 2018For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. A different truncation (p.Leu1330Valfs*12) that lies downstream of this variant has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 14520694, 15236168, 16237223, 19851887, 21155762, 24440087). This suggests that deletion of this region of the MSH6 protein is causative of disease. This variant has been reported in individuals in the Leiden Open-source Variation Database (PMID: 21520333). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89481). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change results in a premature translational stop signal in the MSH6 gene (p.Glu1310Ilefs*20). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 51 amino acids of the MSH6 protein. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 21, 2023The c.3920_3927dupATCTCCCA variant, located in coding exon 9 of the MSH6 gene, results from a duplication of ATCTCCCA at nucleotide position 3920, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.E1310Ifs*20). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theMSH6 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 52 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
