Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome associated tumors (Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 1 of the MSH6 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18269114, 24362816). -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
The c.261-1G>A intronic variant results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide upstream from coding exon 2 of the MSH6 gene. This nucleotide position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
