Invitae RCV001061933 SCV001226697 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-11-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu634*) 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). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with endometrial cancer (PMID: 12732731, 15098177). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 619873). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001805840 SCV002052836 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-11-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
GeneDx RCV000759849 SCV002526467 pathogenic not provided 2022-06-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Truncating variants in this gene are considered pathogenic by a well-established clinical consortium and/or database; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge
Ambry Genetics RCV001805840 SCV002722635 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-04-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.L634* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1901T>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a T to A substitution at nucleotide position 1901. This changes the amino acid from a leucine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. 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.
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV003453560 SCV004188272 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 5 2023-08-16 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation.
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV003999908 SCV004835533 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2023-06-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is predicted to result in loss of protein function through nonsense-mediated or protein truncation. Loss of function is an established mechanism of disease. This variant is absent from large population databases, including the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). To date, this variant has not been reported in association with MSH6-related disease in the medical literature. A different variant (c.1901_1902del) that results in p.Leu634Ter has been reported in association with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 12732731; ClinVar ID 89232).
