Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.1082G>A(p.Arg361His) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000198 in 1,461,804 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R361C) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
Lynch syndrome 5 Uncertain:2
This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -

Lynch syndrome Uncertain:2
MSH6 NM_000179.2:c.1082G>A has a 48.2% probability of pathogenicity based on combining prior probability from public data with likelihood ratios of 1.56, 1.56, and 0.16 to 1, generated from evidence of seeing this as a somatic mutation in three independent tumors two without loss of heterozygosity and one with loss of heterozygosity at the MSH6 locus. See Shirts et al 2018, PMID 29887214. -
This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 361 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with hepatic carcinoma and gastric cancer (PMID: 17498565). This variant has also been identified in 4/251054 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. -
not provided Uncertain:2
MSH6: PM2, BP4 -
This variant is denoted MSH6 c.1082G>A at the cDNA level, p.Arg361His (R361H) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Arginine to a Histidine (CGC>CAC). This variant was observed in an individual with a personal history of hepatic and gastric cancer (Koehler 2007). MSH6 Arg361His was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). MSH6 Arg361His is located in the nuclear localization signals region (Gassman 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH6 Arg361His is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1Benign:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 361 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with hepatic carcinoma and gastric cancer (PMID: 17498565). This variant has been identified in 4/251054 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. -
This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
MSH6-related disorder Uncertain:1
The MSH6 c.1082G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg361His. This variant was reported in a study of hereditary cancer variants in biliary tract cancer and was classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) (Okawa et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36243179, Supplementary Table 2). This variant is reported in 0.0054% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. In ClinVar, this variant was classified as VUS by the vast majority of the laboratories (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/89168/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
