Invitae	RCV000524108	SCV000261811	pathogenic	Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms	2023-12-23	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg482*) in the MSH6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18269114, 24362816). This variant is present in population databases (rs63750909, gnomAD 0.06%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 15236168, 20028993, 20587412, 21836479, 22495361). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89194). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics	RCV000491001	SCV000580093	pathogenic	Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome	2022-04-28	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The p.R482* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1444C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1444. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This mutation was detected in a family that met Amsterdam II criteria and the mutation showed moderate segregation with disease (Hendriks YM et al. Gastroenterology 2004 Jul;127(1):17-25). The mutation has also been reported in multiple patients with hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC)/Lynch syndrome, some of whom have been shown to have tumors with loss of MSH6 protein on immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Nilbert M et al. Fam. Cancer 2009 Jun;8(1):75-83; Jensen UB et al. Breast Cancer Res. Treat. 2010 Apr;120:777-82; Okkels H et al. Appl. Immunohistochem. Mol. Morphol. 2012 Oct;20:470-7). The p.R482* mutation was identified in a 34 year-old woman with choroid plexus carcinoma (CPC) that demonstrated absence of MSH6 protein by IHC (Zhu VW et al. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2017 Jul;158:46-48). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.

This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 15236168, 19575290, 20587412, 22495361, 28460341) and colorectal cancer (PMID: 20028993). This variant has been identified in 1/31384 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System	RCV001355905	SCV001550923	pathogenic	Carcinoma of colon		no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	The MSH6 p.Arg482X variant was identified in 6 of 3135 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with CRC and prostate cancer (Hendriks 2004, Nilbert 2008, Dominguez-Valentin 2016). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs63750909) as “With Pathogenic allele” ,ClinVar (5x, as pathogenic, by InSight, Invitae, GeneDx, Counsyl, Ambry Genetics), Clinvitae (3x, as pathogenic, by ClinVar and Clinvitae), Cosmic (as pathogenic), UMD-LSDB (8 records, as causal), Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database (4x, as class 5, pathogenic), Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database (2x as pathogenic), Insight Hereditary Tumors Database (5x , as class 5, "affects function”). The variant was not identified in MutDB, GeneInsight-COGR, Zhejiang Colon Cancer databases. The variant was identified in control databases in 1 of 30956 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000032 in East Asian population (Genome Aggregation Consortium Feb 27, 2017). The p.Arg482X variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 482, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function.4. Loss of function variants of the MSH6 gene are an established mechanism of disease in colorectal cancer and is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
