Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PM2BP4
The NM_000179.3(MSH6):c.763G>A(p.Glu255Lys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign 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. E255G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health | Dec 04, 2023 | This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 255 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MSH6-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified 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. - |
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Jan 08, 2024 | The p.E255K variant (also known as c.763G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 763. The glutamic acid at codon 255 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
MSH6-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences | Apr 20, 2023 | The MSH6 c.763G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu255Lys. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. It is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/234629/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. - |
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | GeneDx | Nov 19, 2015 | This variant is denoted MSH6 c.763G>A at the cDNA level, p.Glu255Lys (E255K) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Glutamic Acid to a Lysine (GAG>AAG). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH6 Glu255Lys was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Glutamic Acid and Lysine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. MSH6 Glu255Lys occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals and is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH6 Glu255Lys is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. - |
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Invitae | Jul 26, 2022 | Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MSH6 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234629). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH6-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 255 of the MSH6 protein (p.Glu255Lys). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. - |
