Ambry Genetics RCV000490967 SCV000580276 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-01-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.T6P variant (also known as c.16A>C), located in coding exon 1 of the MSH6 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 16. The threonine at codon 6 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients who underwent whole genome sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing; this patient was diagnosed with high grade glioma (Zhang J et al. N. Engl. J. Med., 2015 Dec;373:2336-2346). In a study of whole-exome sequencing in patients with features of Cowden syndrome (CS) or Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS) and negative PTEN testing, this alteration was identified in 0/87 patients with CS or BRRS and 1/3476 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (Yehia L et al. PLoS Genet., 2018 04;14:e1007352). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000490967 SCV001346620 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-03-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces threonine with proline at codon 6 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals with glioma (PMID: 26580448) and unspecified cancer (PMID: 29684080). This variant has been identified in 2/276232 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.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004535548 SCV004717661 uncertain significance MSH6-related disorder 2024-02-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The MSH6 c.16A>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr6Pro. This variant has been reported in an individual with high grade glioma (Zhang et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26580448, Table S4a, Case SJHGG073) and in at least one individual with Cowden syndrome or Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (Yehia et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29684080, Table S9). This variant is reported in 0.0084% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/428380/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV004003459 SCV004832165 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 2023-09-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces threonine with proline at codon 6 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction tool is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, 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 not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/276232 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.
