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]

Lynch syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMendelicsJul 02, 2018- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthAug 23, 2023This missense variant replaces proline with arginine at codon 898 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses are inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on the protein function. Computational splicing tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional assays have not been performed for this variant nor has this variant been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthAug 09, 2023This missense variant replaces proline with arginine at codon 898 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, 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 submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 31, 2023The p.P898R variant (also known as c.2693C>G), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 2693. The proline at codon 898 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration was detected in a cohort of 1663 Brazilian breast cancer patients who underwent hereditary multigene panel testing (Guindalini RSC et al. Sci Rep, 2022 Mar;12:4190). This amino acid position is 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 02, 2021Variant summary: MSH6 c.2693C>G (p.Pro898Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250594 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2693C>G in individuals affected with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer/Lynch syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 21, 2018This variant is denoted MSH6 c.2693C>G at the cDNA level, p.Pro898Arg (P898R) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Proline to an Arginine (CCT>CGT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as a pathogenic or benign germline variant. MSH6 Pro898Arg was not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). MSH6 Pro898Arg is located in the lever domain (Warren 2007, Kansikas 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH6 Pro898Arg 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 submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 21, 2024This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 898 of the MSH6 protein (p.Pro898Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH6-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234896). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
