GeneDx	RCV000656904	SCV000149333	uncertain significance	not provided	2018-04-26	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This variant is denoted MSH6 c.3824G>A at the cDNA level, p.Cys1275Tyr (C1275Y) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Cysteine to a Tyrosine (TGT>TAT). This variant was observed in at least one individual with breast cancer (Tung 2015). MSH6 Cys1275Tyr was not observed at a significant allele frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). This variant is located in the ATPase domain (Warren 2007, Kansikas 2011). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MSH6 Cys1275Tyr is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance.
Invitae	RCV000119134	SCV000153848	uncertain significance	Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer	2018-12-24	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 1275 of the MSH6 protein (p.Cys1275Tyr). The cysteine residue is weakly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tyrosine. This variant is present in population databases (rs150990541, ExAC 0.003%). This variant has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127594). An algorithm developed specifically for the MSH6 gene suggests that this missense change is likely to be deleterious (PMID: 23621914). However, this prediction has not been confirmed by published functional studies and its clinical significance is uncertain. 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.
