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]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Feb 06, 2020 | This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with endometrial cancer (PMID: 26681312). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. - |
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Dec 21, 2020 | The p.W414* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1241G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1241. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This variant has been identified in multiple patients referred for evaluation by an NGS hereditary cancer panel (Roberts ME et al. Genet Med, 2018 10;20:1167-1174; Susswein LR et al. Genet Med, 2016 08;18:823-32; Carter NJ et al. Gynecol Oncol, 2018 12;151:481-488). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. - |

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
| Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | May 23, 2017 | For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 24362816, 18269114). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp414*) in the MSH6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. - |
