Invitae RCV000791425 SCV000551099 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2022-11-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410426). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH6-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr524*) 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).
Ambry Genetics RCV000491224 SCV000580145 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-06-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Y524* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1572C>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1572. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addtion, 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.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000457937 SCV000695787 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2016-11-04 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The MSH6 c.1572C>A (p.Tyr524X) variant results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncated or absent MSH6 protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.1784delT/p.Leu595fsX15; c.2230dupG/p.Glu744fsX12; c.2731C>T/p.Arg911X, etc). One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. This variant is absent in 121362 control chromosomes. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical diagnostic laboratories; nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. However, the variant c.1572C>G leading to the same codon change p.Tyr524X in MSH6 is classified as "pathogenic" by InSiGHT, and has been reported in affected individuals. Taken together, according to ACMG guideline, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
