International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000074659 SCV000107861 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon
Ambry Genetics RCV000131420 SCV000186400 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-05-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R495* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1483C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1483. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This mutation has been identified in multiple individuals/families with HNPCC/Lynch syndrome based on personal and family history (Sjursen W et al. J. Med. Genet. 2010 Sep;47:579-85; Dominguez-Valentin M et al. BMC Urol. 2016 Mar;16:15; Beggs AD et al. Breast J. Jan;19:193-5). This alteration has been identified in a cohort of Swedish Lynch syndrome families (Lagerstedt-Robinson K et al. Oncol. Rep. 2016 Nov;36:2823-2835) and in a cohort of Latin American patients suspected of having Lynch syndrome (Rossi BM et al. BMC Cancer. 2017 Sep;17:623). This alteration was also detected in a cohort of 8085 consecutive unselected Chinese breast cancer patients who underwent multi-gene panel testing. (Sun J et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2017 Oct;23:6113-6119). 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.

Invitae RCV000524112 SCV000551164 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-12-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg495*) 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 (rs587779212, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 20587412, 21642682, 26437257, 27601186). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89197). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

It has also been identified in 0.003% (1/30616) of South Asian chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 495, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. Additionally, this variant was classified as pathogenic on September 5, 2013 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (ClinVar Variation ID 89197). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Moderate.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001353858 SCV000592586 pathogenic Carcinoma of colon no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The p.Arg495X variant has been reported in the HGMD, COSMIC, InSiGHT databases and once in the literature in 5 out of 1028 proband chromosomes in individuals with HNPCC. However, no controls were tested to establish the frequency of the variant in the general population (Sjursen 2010). The variant leads to a premature stop codon at position 495 which is predicted to cause premature truncation of the protein product. This is a loss of function DNA variant and loss of function the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism for Lynch syndrome. In summary, based on the above information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
