Ambry Genetics RCV000215555 SCV000278728 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-03-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.H552Q variant (also known as c.1656T>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 1656. The histidine at codon 552 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available lower vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000215555 SCV000908378 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-11-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces histidine with glutamine at codon 552 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26689913). This variant has been identified in 1/250912 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV003998606 SCV004841835 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 2023-01-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces histidine with glutamine at codon 552 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with ovarian cancer (PMID: 26689913). This variant has been identified in 1/250912 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
