RCV000477991 | SCV000565215 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2015-01-29 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is denoted MSH6 c.1382T>G at the cDNA level, p.Phe461Cys (F461C) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Phenylalanine to a Cysteine (TTT>TGT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MSH6 Phe461Cys was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Phenylalanine and Cysteine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. MSH6 Phe461Cys occurs at a position that is highly conserved across species and is located in the binding sites of MSH2 (Kariola 2002). In silico analyses predict that this variant is probably damaging to protein structure and function. Based on the currently available information, we consider MSH6 Phe461Cys to be a variant of uncertain significance. |
Ambry Genetics | RCV000564326 | SCV000670107 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2021-05-07 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.F461C variant (also known as c.1382T>G), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 1382. The phenylalanine at codon 461 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. |

RCV000815191 | SCV000955639 | uncertain significance | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2023-08-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 461 of the MSH6 protein (p.Phe461Cys). 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: 418323). 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 expected to disrupt MSH6 protein function. 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. |
