Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
The c.3744_3773del30 pathogenic mutation (also known as p.H1248_S1257del) is located in coding exon 8 of the MSH6 gene. This mutation results from an in-frame deletion of 30 nucleotides at positions 3744 to 3773 and causes the removal of 10 well-conserved amino acid residues at codons 1248 to 1257. This mutation has been seen in individuals with Lynch syndrome, including three families meeting Amsterdam criteria with tumor results from one family showing loss of MSH6 protein on immunohistochemistry (Chang K et al. JAMA Oncol, 2018 08;4:1085-1092; Ambry internal data). This mutation was also reported in a woman whose endometrial tumor demonstrated loss of MSH6 on IHC (Dedeurwaerdere F et al. Sci Rep, 2021 06;11:12880). In addition, this mutation segregated with disease in the three families with a combined LOD score of 1.8 (Ambry internal data). Based on internal structural analysis, this alteration results in a distortion of the α-helix of a protein-protein interface of MSH6, significantly altering the surrounding residues (Warren JJ et al. Mol. Cell. 2007 May; 26(4):579-92). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
This variant causes an in-frame deletion of 10 amino acids at exon 8 of the MSH6 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome and Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 29710228; ClinVar SCV000580154.5, SCV000624910.8), and in an individual affected with mismatch repair deficient endometrial cancer (PMID: 34145315).This variant has been identified in 1/251206 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: MSH6 c.3744_3773del30 (p.His1248_Ser1257del) results in an in-frame deletion that is predicted to remove 10 amino acids from the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, C-terminal domain of the encoded protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251206 control chromosomes. c.3744_3773del30 has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with features of Lynch Syndrome/Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (example, Chang_2018, Dedeurwaerdere_2021, personal correspondance from our partner laboratory). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been observed at our laboratory (APC c.487C>T, p.Gln163X). 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: 29710228, 34145315, 29922827). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218070). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Lynch syndrome Pathogenic:1
This variant causes an in-frame deletion of 10 amino acids at exon 8 of the MSH6 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome and Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 29710228; ClinVar SCV000580154.5, SCV000624910.8), and in an individual affected with mismatch repair deficient endometrial cancer (PMID: 34145315).This variant has been identified in 1/251206 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

In-frame deletion of 10 amino acids in a non-repeat region predicted to critically alter the protein: disrupts the ATPase domain (Warren et al., 2007, Kansikas et al., 2011); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28765196, 25504618, 29922827, 17531815, 21120944, 34145315) -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
This variant, c.3744_3773del, results in the deletion of 10 amino acid(s) of the MSH6 protein (p.His1248_Ser1257del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has been observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome-related cancers and Lynch syndrome (External communication, internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. Invitae Evidence Modeling of clinical and family history, age, sex, and reported ancestry of multiple individuals with this MSH6 variant has been performed. This variant is expected to be pathogenic with a positive predictive value of at least 99%. This is a validated machine learning model that incorporates the clinical features of 1,370,736 individuals referred to our laboratory for MSH6 testing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 218070). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
