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 Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 18, 2022The p.G1186D variant (also known as c.3557G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3557. The glycine at codon 1186 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This change occurs in the first base pair of coding exon 7. RNA studies have demonstrated that this alteration does not result in abnormal splicing in the set of samples tested (Ambry internal data). This variant was identified in a male proband with Barrett’s esophagus who had a family history of esophageal cancer in a first-degree relative (Rubenstein JH et al. Clin Transl Gastroenterol, 2020 Apr;11:e00151). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMay 10, 2023This missense variant replaces glycine with aspartic acid at codon 1186 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome or colorectal cancer cancer in the literature. In a large breast cancer case-control study, This variant has been observed in 2/60466 cases and 0/53461 unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 5/249444 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 04, 2023Variant summary: MSH6 c.3557G>A (p.Gly1186Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal domain (IPR000432) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. Two computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing and 2 predict the variant weakens the canonical 3' acceptor splice site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 249444 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3557G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Colorectal Cancer (Gordon_2019), Esophageal Cancer (Rubenstein_2020) and Breast Cancer (Dorling_2021). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31422818, 32251017, 33471991). Eight ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014, and all submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 25, 2017The p.Gly1186Asp variant in MSH6 has not been previously reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome but has been identified in 3/66564 of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs587781690). This variant is located in the first base of the exon, which is part of the 3? splice region. Splicing prediction tools do not suggest altered s plicing and computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest tha t the p.Gly1186Asp variant may impact the protein, though this information is no t predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signifi cance of the p.Gly1186Asp variant is uncertain. -
not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 01, 2018This variant is denoted MSH6 c.3557G>A at the cDNA level, p.Gly1186Asp (G1186D) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glycine to an Aspartic Acid (GGT>GAT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH6 Gly1186Asp was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the ATPase domain (Warren 2007, Kansikas 2011). Protein-based in silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. In addition, multiple splicing models predict that this variant may destroy the nearby natural splice site. However, in the absence of RNA or functional studies, the actual effect of this variant is unknown. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH6 Gly1186Asp is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoMay 25, 2023In the published literature, this variant has been reported in an individual with Barrett’s esophagus and a family history of esophageal cancer in a first degree relative (PMID: 32251017 (2020)) and in an individual with colon polyps or colorectal cancer (PMID: 31422818 (2019)). In a large-scale breast cancer association study, the variant was observed in breast cancer cases and not among unaffected individuals (PMID: 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/MSH6)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000044 (5/112648 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 14, 2023This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 1186 of the MSH6 protein (p.Gly1186Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781690, gnomAD 0.004%). 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: 141364). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
