Ambry Genetics RCV000569553 SCV000662369 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-05-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.G620S variant (also known as c.1858G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1858. The glycine at codon 620 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in a cohort of 1260 individuals undergoing panel testing for Lynch syndrome due to having a diagnosis of a Lynch-associated cancer and/or polyps (Yurgelun MB et al. Gastroenterology. 2015 Sep;149:604-13.e20). This alteration was also identified in cohort of 302 patients diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and a family history positive for pancreatic cancer (Chaffee KG et al. Genet Med. 2018 01;20:119-127). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available 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 RCV000569553 SCV000911026 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-03-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glycine with serine at codon 620 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in at least one individual affected with pancreatic cancer, and in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer in the literature (PMID 25980754, 28726808). This variant has been identified in 2/250666 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.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000662360 SCV004018444 benign Lynch syndrome 5 2023-03-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered benign. This variant has been observed in trans with a known pathogenic variant in one or more individuals lacking clinical features consistent with gene-specific recessive disease. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 25085752].
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV003998620 SCV004835456 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 2023-12-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces glycine with serine at codon 620 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 at least one individual affected with pancreatic cancer, and in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer in the literature (PMID 25980754, 28726808). This variant has been identified in 2/250666 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 RCV004541361 SCV004782136 uncertain significance MSH6-related disorder 2024-02-05 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The MSH6 c.1858G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly620Ser. This variant has been reported in individuals with pancreatic cancer, Lynch syndrome-associated cancers and/or polyps (Yurgelun et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25980754. Table S2; Chaffee et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 28726808. Table S2). This variant is reported in 0.0018% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. In ClinVar, this variant has conflicting interpretations ranging from benign to uncertain (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/234483/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
