Genes affected
MSH3 (HGNC:7326): (mutS homolog 3) The protein encoded by this gene forms a heterodimer with MSH2 to form MutS beta, part of the post-replicative DNA mismatch repair system. MutS beta initiates mismatch repair by binding to a mismatch and then forming a complex with MutL alpha heterodimer. This gene contains a polymorphic 9 bp tandem repeat sequence in the first exon. The repeat is present 6 times in the reference genome sequence and 3-7 repeats have been reported. Defects in this gene are a cause of susceptibility to endometrial cancer.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr921Metfs*36) in the MSH3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH3 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 27476653, 37402566). This variant is present in population databases (rs751326348, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 27476653). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 253324). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The MSH3 c.2760del (p.Tyr921Metfs*36) variant alters the translational reading frame of the MSH3 mRNA and causes the premature termination of MSH3 protein synthesis. This variant has been reported in the published literature as compound heterozygous in an individual with adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 27476653 (2016)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

The c.2760delC variant, located in coding exon 20 of the MSH3 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 2760, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Y921Mfs*36). This mutation has been reported in conjunction with a validated splicing mutation in MSH3 in two siblings affected with colorectal polyps. Additionally, tumor testing showed that this alteration was associated with high microsatellite instabilityof di- and tetranucleotides (EMAST), and immunohistochemistry illustrated complete loss of nuclear MSH3 in normal and tumor tissue (Adam R et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet., 2016 Aug;99:337-51). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -
