Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant has been classified as Likely benign in ClinVar with 3 stars by InSiGHT (expert panel), Pathway Genomics, Emory, CSER_CC_NCGL, and as Benign by Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry, and as VUS by Mayo and Biesecker lab. It has been seen in 9 papers in HGMD, with the comments mostly suggesting that it is likely benign. It is in gnomAD at a frequency of 2.3% of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000034492 SCV000885718 likely benign not provided 2018-05-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The MSH6 c.1526T>C; p.Val509Ala variant (rs63751005) is reported in the literature in individuals with lynch syndrome (Hegde 2005, Lipkin 2004), but is also found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.1% (268/276940 alleles, including 2 homozygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database, with an increased frequency of 2.3% in the Askenazi Jewish population. Functional analyses do not show a significant impact on protein function (Houlleberghs 2017, Martinez 2010). This variant is reported as benign or likely benign by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID: 41588). The valine at codon 509 is highly conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. However, given the high frequency in the general population, this variant is considered to be likely benign. REFERENCES Hegde M et al.

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000659890 SCV001299859 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 5 2017-04-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001354372 SCV001548974 likely benign Carcinoma of colon no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The MSH6 p.Val509Ala variant was identified in 4 of 344 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.01) from individuals or families with hereditary non-polyposis colon cancer and was present in 4 of 1512 control chromosomes (frequency: 0.003) from healthy individuals (Dovrat 2005, Hedge 2005, Peterlongo 2003, Johnston 2012). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (rs63751005) as “with other allele”, ClinVar (classified as likely benign by InSiGHT expert panel in 2013, Color, Eurofins and 4 other submitters; as benign by Invitae, GeneDx, Ambry Genetics and 1 other submitter; and as uncertain significance by Mayo Clinic and 3 other submitters) and UMD-LSDB (observed 5x). The variant was identified in control databases in 278 of 282,624 chromosomes (3 homozygous) at a frequency of 0.001, increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: Ashkenazi Jewish in 244 of 10,364 chromosomes (freq: 0.02), Other in 13 of 7218 chromosomes (freq: 0.002), and European in 21 of 129,016 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), while it was not observed in the African, Latino, East Asian, Finnish or South Asian populations. The variant had no observed effect on MMR activity in mouse embryonic stem cells (Houlleberghs 2017). The p.Val509 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 3 of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign.
