International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000074823 SCV000108034 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 1 2018-03-09 reviewed by expert panel curation Co-occurrence in trans with a known pathogenic sequence variant in the same gene in a patient with clinical features consistent with CMMRD and documented MMR deficiency in normal cells
Ambry Genetics RCV000162445 SCV000212797 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-12-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R1076C pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3226C>T), located in coding exon 5 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3226. The arginine at codon 1076 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. The in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive and this amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In one study, the p.R1076C mutation was detected in a male proband with colorectal cancer (CRC) at age 55 and a previous diagnosis of gastric cancer. The colorectal tumor of the proband demonstrated clonal loss of expression of both MSH2 and MSH6 proteins by immunohistochemistry (IHC). In addition, this individual's family history included a brother with CRC, an aunt with ovarian cancer, and a cousin with endometrial cancer (Schofield L et al. Int. J .Cancer. 2009 Sep;125:1492-3). The p.R1076C mutation was also reported in a 46-year-old man diagnosed with ascending colon cancer, but his tumor IHC testing showed intact staining for the MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins (Limburg PJ et al. Clin. Gastroenterol. Hepatol. 2011 Jun;9:497-502). Furthermore, the p.R1076C mutation was identified in a proband with a microsatellite stable endometrial cancer with intact staining for the MLH1, MSH2, and MSH6 proteins on IHC (Rubio I et al. Oncology. 2016 Jul;91(3):171-6). In addition, this mutation has been identified in multiple individuals whose Lynch syndrome-associated tumors displayed high microsatellite instability and/or had isolated loss of MSH6 on immunohistochemistry (IHC); however, at least two probands had intact staining on IHC (Ambry internal data). At least five individuals with features of CMMR-D have been reported to carry the p.R1076C mutation and a pathogenic (nonsense/frameshift) MSH6 mutation in trans, suggesting biallelic mismatch repair inactivation (Plaschke J et al. Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2006 May;14:561-6; Okkels H et al. Int. J. Colorectal Dis. 2006 Dec;21:847-50; Rahner N et al. Am. J. Med. Genet. A. 2008 May;146A:1314-9; Jasperson KW et al. Clin. Genet. 2011 Oct;80:394-7). However, an individual found to be homozygous for this mutation did not present with classic CMMR-D symptoms and instead developed CRC at the ages of 45 and 49, suggesting that this variant may be hypomorphic. As risk estimates are unknown at this time, clinical correlation is advised. Based on the total supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation, but may represent a low- or lower-penetrance MSH6 allele with regards to CMMR-D.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000524159 SCV000283794 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2024-01-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1076 of the MSH6 protein (p.Arg1076Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs63750617, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Lynch syndrome and also in unaffected individuals (PMID: 21056691, 27696107, 18566915, Invitae, external communication). Also, it has been observed in several individuals with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMR-D) syndrome. In at least one individual the data is consistent with the variant being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant (PMID: 15483016, 16418736, 16525781, 21039432, 18409202). These individuals were affected with early-onset colorectal cancer, glioblastoma, endometrial cancer, adenomatous polyposis, and/or cafe-au-lait spots. However, this variant was also found to be homozygous in individuals with mild CMMR-D features; these individuals were affected with colorectal cancer and kidney cancer (PMID: 22250089, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89357). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MSH6 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
GeneDx RCV000254700 SCV000321908 likely pathogenic not provided 2023-09-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Observed in individuals with a personal and/or family history of colorectal cancer, some with tumor studies demonstrating loss of MSH6 protein expression (Nilbert et al., 2009; Schofield et al., 2009; Limburg et al., 2011; Rubio et al., 2016; Schultheis et al., 2016; Liccardo et al., 2017; Rohlin et al., 2017; Xu et al., 2020); May be a hypomorphic allele as it was observed in the homozygous state in a patient with relatively late onset colorectal cancer, and, among heterozygotes, a limited number of Lynch-associated cancers have been observed in multiple internal and published families (Okkels et al., 2006; Rahner et al., 2008; Gardes et al., 2012); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22949379, 15483016, 20531397, 22886683, 32980694, 31830689, 34637943, 29922827, 28888541, 32832836, 32029870, 33194656, 17531815, 21120944, 23621914, 18566915, 21674763, 21056691, 16525781, 16418736, 18409202, 19072991, 21039432, 26832770, 24012250, 27398995, 22250089, 18709565, 27601186, 27696107, 29785566, 28481244, 21836479, 22495361, 21376568, 30521064, 30322717, 32635641, 31721094, 31997046, 31447099, 32658311, 33422121, 31589614, 33309985, 34308104, 34873480, 35725860, 32719484, 30787465, 33087929, 32427313, 34445333, 33365374, 35535697)
Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano RCV000254700 SCV000601562 pathogenic not provided 2022-09-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00027 (5/18386 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in multiple individuals with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 18566915 (2009), 26832770 (2016), 27601186 (2016), 18566915 (2009)), breast cancer (PMID: 32658311 (2021), 34637943 (2021)), prostate cancer (PMID: 32832836 (2020), or a Lynch syndrome associated cancer (PMID: 32635641 (2020), 30521064 (2019), 30322717 (2018), 27398995 (2016), 27696107 (2016), 19072991 (2009)). The variant has also been reported in the compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic MSH6 variants in individuals with a constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome phenotype (PMID: 21039432 (2011), 18409202 (2008), 16418736 (2006), 16525781 (2006)). Additionally, this variant has been shown to result in defective DNA repair when the variant is in the homozygous state or when coupled with another pathogenic MSH6 variant (PMID: 22250089 (2012)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic with reduced penetrance. This individual is at increased risk of developing MSH6 related cancers, though he/she is likely to have less cancer risk than individuals who are positive for other MSH6 pathogenic variants.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000162445 SCV000690333 likely pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-07-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 1076 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in heterozygous state in multiple individuals and families affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 18566915, 19072991, 21056691, 22949379, 27696107, 28481244, 30521064). This variant has been reported in at least five individuals found in trans with pathogenic MSH6 co-variants (compound heterozygous) who were affected with early-onset mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer and/or polyps and some features of constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMR-D) syndrome (PMID: 16418736, 16525781, 18409202, 21039432, 21836479, 22250089, 29785566). This variant was also detected in a homozygous individual affected with recurrent colorectal cancer in his 40s and multiple colorectal adenomas and polyps (PMID: 22250089). This variant has been identified in 24/251346 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
Human Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of Medicine RCV000709742 SCV000840015 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 5 2017-10-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys) variant in the MSH6 gene has been reported in the homozygous state in 1 individual with colorectal cancer (PMID: 22250089). It has also been reported in trans configuration with a pathogenic variant in 3 unrelated individuals with autosomal recessive hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer type 5 (HNPCC5; PMID: 16418736, 16525781, 18409202) and in 2 related individuals with mismatch repair cancer syndrome (MMRCS; MIM 600678; PMID: 21039432). Segregation studies in this family confirmed that the c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys) variant segregated together with a second pathogenic variant in the 2 affected individuals, but not in 6 unaffected family members (PMID: 21039432). The c.3226C>T variant is very rare in the general population. While not validated for clinical use, the computer-based algorithms PolyPhen-2 and SIFT predict the p.Arg1076Cys change to be deleterious. Based on this information, the c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys) variant in the MSH6 gene is classified as likely pathogenic.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000780464 SCV000917733 likely pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer 2024-06-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH6 c.3226C>T (p.Arg1076Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein MutS, core domain (IPR007696) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.5e-05 in 251346 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is lower than expected for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Lynch Syndrome (9.5e-05 vs 0.00014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.3226C>T, has been reported in compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic MSH6 truncating variants in several patients with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome, i.e. early-onset colorectal cancer, adenomatous polyposis and cafe-au-lait spots (Okkels 2006, Plaschke 2006, Rahner 2008, Allred 2013). In many of these cases the loss of MSH6 staining in both the tumor and normal cells was described, pointing to a bi-allelic MSH6 mutation. The variant was also reported in heterozygosity in individuals affected by Lynch syndrome (Schofield 2009, Lagerstedt-Robinson 2016, Rohlin 2016, Liccardo 2017, Espenschied 2017, Kim_2022, Duzkale_2021), where in several cases the associated tumor demonstrated isolated loss of MSH6 staining. However, within the reported CMMRD families the variant was also observed in heterozygous state in unaffected family members (Plaschke 2006, Okkels 2006, Allred 2013), suggesting its role in causing Lynch syndrome is uncertain. This variant was also found in a homozygote who developed colorectal tumors at the age of 45 and 49 year, together with multiple colon adenomas and polyps (Gardes 2012), a disease history that is closer to Lynch syndrome than CMMRD. However, in LCLs derived from this patient, though MSH6 mRNA was detectable, Western blot analysis demonstrated the lack of MSH6 protein, a finding that is consistent with CMMRD (Gardes 2012). These data indicate that the variant may be a hypomorphic allele, though no functional studies are available to support this assumption. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34637943, 34271781, 28514183, 22250089, 35884469, 21836479, 27601186, 28481244, 21056691, 35725860, 36243179, 16525781, 16418736, 18409202, 27696107, 19072991, 23621914, 22949379, Allred_2013). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89357). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic for constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome.

This variant has also been reported in trans to another pathogenic variant in multiple individuals with symptoms consistent with constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) syndrome (Gardes 2012, Jasperson 2011, Okkels 2006, Plaschke 2006). However, the p.Arg1076Cys variant has also been found in a homozygous individual with symptoms more consistent with Lynch syndrome (Gardes 2012), as well as in healthy heterozygous relatives of affected individuals (Jasperson 2011, Okkels 2006, Plaschke 2006), suggesting it may exhibit incomplete penetrance. This variant is found in the general population with a low overall allele frequency of 0.01% (24/251346 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 1076 is highly conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.849). Patient cells carrying this variant exhibit reduced resolution of irradiation-induced DNA damage foci compared to control cells (Gardes 2012), suggesting reduced DNA damage repair activity. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Gardes P et al. Human MSH6 deficiency is associated with impaired antibody maturation.

Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in heterozygous state in multiple individuals and families affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancer (PMID: 18566915, 19072991, 21056691, 22949379, 27696107, 28481244, 30521064). This variant has been reported in at least five individuals found in trans with pathogenic MSH6 co-variants (compound heterozygous) who were affected with early-onset mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer and/or polyps and some features of constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMR-D) syndrome (PMID: 16418736, 16525781, 18409202, 21039432, 21836479, 22250089, 29785566). This variant was also detected in a homozygous individual affected with recurrent colorectal cancer in his 40s and multiple colorectal adenomas and polyps (PMID: 22250089). This variant has been identified in 24/251346 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV003997086 SCV004847993 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2019-10-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Arg1076Cys variant in MSH6 has been reported in the heterozygous state in at least 12 individuals with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (Plaschke 2004, Limburg 2011, Liccardo 2017, Rohlin 2017, Rubio 2016, Schultheis 2016, Klarskov 2011, Schofield 2009, Nilbert 2009) and in the homozygous state in 1 individual with relatively late onset colorectal cancer, suggesting that it may be a hypomorphic allele (Gardes 2012). Additionally, the p.Arg1076Cys variant has also been reported in the compound heterozygous state in 5 individuals (from four families) with clinical features of constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (Okkels 2006, Plaschke 2006, Jasperson 2011, Gardes 2012). It has also been identified in 0.03% (5/18386) of East Asian chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Immunohistochemistry staining of tumor tissue samples in the majority of affected individuals showed loss of MSH6 staining, providing evidence that the Arg1076Cys variant may impact protein function. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that this variant may impact the protein. This variant was classified as Likely Pathogenic on March 9, 2018 by the ClinGen-approved InSiGHT expert panel (RCV000074823.4). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001356266 SCV001551385 likely pathogenic Malignant tumor of breast no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The MSH6 p.Arg1076Cys variant was identified in 10 of 5256 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals or families with Lynch syndrome, early onset colorectal cancer, or endometrial cancer (Lagerstedt-Robinson 2016, Liccardo 2017, Limburg 2011, Nilbert 2009, Okkels 2012, Plaschke 2004, Rohlin 2017, Rubio 2016, Schofield 2009). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs63750617) as “With Pathogenic, Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as likely pathogenic by an InSiGHT expert panel in 2018, Ambry Genetics, GeneDx, and three other submitters; and as pathogenic by Invitae), and UMD-LSDB (3x classified neutral). The variant was identified in multiple cases with co-occurring, pathogenic MSH6 variants in patients with later-onset Lynch Syndrome-related cancers or mild Constitutional Mismatch Repair Deficiency-like phenotypes (Gardes 2012, Jasperson 2011, Okkels 2006, Okkels 2012, Plaschke 2006, Rahner 2007, Thompson 2013) as well as in the homozygous state in a patient with colorectal cancer at ages 45 and 49 (Gardes 2012), suggesting that this could be a hypomorphic variant. In vitro studies showed a normal transcript by RT-PCR RNA analysis, while Western blot analysis did not detect MSH6 protein (Thompson 2013, Gardes 2012).The variant was identified in control databases in 24 of 246118 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0001 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 2 of 15304 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), Latino in 2 of 33554 chromosomes (freq: 0.00006), European in 9 of 111618 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), Ashkenazi Jewish in 1 of 9846 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), East Asian in 5 of 17240 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), and South Asian in 5 of 30780 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), while it was not observed in the Other or Finnish populations. The p.Arg1076 residue is conserved across mammals and other organisms and 5 of 5 computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time, although we would lean towards a more pathogenic role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely pathogenic.
