Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_Strong
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.3536C>A(p.Ala1179Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000685 in 1,460,414 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A1179V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
- -
The p.A1179D variant (also known as c.3536C>A), located in coding exon 6 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 3536. The alanine at codon 1179 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces alanine with aspartic acid at codon 1179 of the MSH6 protein (p.Ala1179Asp). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between alanine and aspartic acid. This variant is present in population databases (rs773583312, ExAC 0.009%) but has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a MSH6-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a rare missense change with uncertain impact on protein function. There is no indication that it causes disease, but the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
