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]

The MSH6 c.3227G>A (p.Arg1076His) variant has been reported in the published literature in numerous individuals/families with Lynch syndrome (PMIDs: 37088804 (2023), 31391288 (2020), 24710284 (2014)), colorectal cancer (PMID: 31997046 (2020)), breast/ovarian cancer (PMIDs: 29263802 (2016), 26898890 (2016), 33471991 (2021), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/)), and pancreatic cancer (PMIDs: 32659497 (2020), 28767289 (2017)). A different variant at this codon, c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys), has been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome (PMIDs: 26832770 (2016), 27601186 (2016)) with damaging effects on MSH6 protein function (PMID: 22250089 (2012)). The frequency of the c.3227G>A (p.Arg1076His) variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251346 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is consistent with pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is benign or damaging. Based on the available information, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 1076 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 been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome, pancreatic, colorectal, and breast and/or ovarian cancers (PMID: 24710284, 26898890, 27153395, 28767289, 29263802, 31997046, 37088804; ClinVar: SCV000216699.8; communication with external laboratory). Different variants occurring at the same codon, c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys) and c.3226C>G (p.Arg1076Gly), are well-documented pathogenic mutations (ClinVar Variation ID: 89357, 428337). This variant has been identified in 2/251346 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

The p.R1076H variant (also known as c.3227G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3227. The arginine at codon 1076 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple individuals whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumors displayed isolated loss of MSH6 on immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or had high microsatellite instability (MSI-H) (Ambry internal data). This alteration was reported in one family from a cohort of 59 Asian families meeting Amsterdam I or Amsterdam II criteria (Liu Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2014 Apr;9:e94170). This alteration has also been reported in multiple patients with a personal/family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer and patients with pancreatic cancer (Wong ESY et al. NPJ Genom. Med. 2016 Jan 13;1:15003; Maxwell KN et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2016 May;98:801-817; Shindo K et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2017 Oct;35:3382-3390; Hu H et al. J Am Coll Surg. 2020 11;231:527-535.e14). Another alteration at the same amino acid position, p.R1076C, has been reported as likely pathogenic due to its identification in individuals with clinical features of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)/Lynch syndrome and constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome (Plaschke J et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2006 May;14:561-6; Okkels H et al. Int J Colorectal Dis. 2006 Dec;21:847-50; Rahner N et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A. 2008 May;146A:1314-9; Schofield L et al. Int. J .Cancer. 2009 Sep;125:1492-3; Jasperson KW et al. Clin. Genet. 2011 Oct;80:394-7; Gard&egrave;s P et al. J. Immunol. 2012 Feb;188:2023-9). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 1076 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 been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome, pancreatic, colorectal, and breast and/or ovarian cancers (PMID: 24710284, 26898890, 27153395, 29263802, 28767289, 37088804; ClinVar: SCV000216699.6; communication with external laboratory). However, characterization of mutations in tumors with this variant suggest the mismatch repair phenotype may be explained by other somatic mutations (PMID: 29887214). Different variants occurring at the same codon, c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys) and c.3226C>G (p.Arg1076Gly), are well-documented pathogenic mutations (ClinVar Variation ID: 89357, 428337). This variant has been identified in 2/251346 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.3227G>A (p.Arg1076His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251346 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3227G>A has been reported in the literature and at our laboratory in individuals fulfilling the Amsterdam criteria for Lynch Syndrome/ individuals meeting guidelines for hereditary cancer risk evaluation and/or features of MSH6-related cancer (Caminsky_2016, Liu_2014, Maxwell_2016, Li_2020, Shindo_2017, internal data). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. 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: 22895193, 26556299, 26898890, 31391288, 24710284, 27153395, 28767289). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186361). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1076 of the MSH6 protein (p.Arg1076His). This variant is present in population databases (rs779617676, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome and/or MSH6-related conditions (PMID: 24710284, 26898890, 31997046; external communication). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 186361). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MSH6 function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg1076 amino acid residue in MSH6. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15483016, 16418736, 16525781, 18409202, 18566915, 21039432; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
