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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Oct 12, 2023	- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Mar 21, 2018	This in-frame deletion of three nucleotides in MSH6 is denoted c.3762_3764delAGA at the cDNA level and p.Glu1254del (E1254del) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are deleted in brackets, is TAGA[delAGA]TTAT. MSH6 Glu1254del, also defined as 3762del3 using alternate nomenclature, was observed in one individual who underwent clinical genetic testing for Lynch Syndrome (Yurgelun 2015). This variant was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This deletion of a single Glutamic Acid amino acid is located in the ATPase domain (Warren 2007, Kansikas 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. However, in the absence of RNA or functional studies, the actual effect of this variant is unknown. Since in-frame deletions may or may not inhibit proper protein functioning, the clinical significance of this finding remains unclear at this time and we consider MSH6 Glu1254del to be a variant of uncertain significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	May 23, 2024	The c.3762_3764delAGA variant (also known as p.E1254del) is located in coding exon 8 of the MSH6 gene. This variant results from an in-frame AGA deletion at nucleotide positions 3762 to 3764. This results in the in-frame deletion of a glutamic acid at codon 1254. This alteration was identified in a cohort of 1260 individuals undergoing panel testing for Lynch syndrome due to having a diagnosis of a Lynch-associated cancer and/or polyps. (Yurgelun MB et al. Gastroenterology, 2015 Sep;149:604-13.e20). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Nov 23, 2022	This variant deletes three nucleotides in exon resulting in an in-frame deletion of a glutamine in MSH6 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual suspected of having Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754). This variant has been identified in 7/282588 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. -

Variant summary: MSH6 c.3762_3764delAGA (p.Glu1254del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove one amino acid from the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal domian (IPR000432) of the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251190 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3762_3764delAGA has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene panel testing in one individual with a history of LS-associated cancer and/or colorectal polyps (Yurgelun_2015).. These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer/Lynch syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25980754). Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This variant, c.3762_3764del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the MSH6 protein (p.Glu1254del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs757589867, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer or clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 25980754, 35449176). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127592). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
