Ambry Genetics RCV000165060 SCV000215761 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2020-07-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000201982 SCV000919736 uncertain significance not specified 2023-05-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH6 c.3478G>A (p.Val1160Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the C-terminal domain (IPR000432) found in proteins in the MutS family of DNA mismatch repair proteins. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. In addition, a bioinformatics tool developed to predict the impact of missense variants in MSH6, indicated no impact on protein function (Terui_2013). The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.2e-05 in 251404 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0012 within the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within Ashkenazi Jewish control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 8-fold higher than the expected maximum for a pathogenic variant in MSH6 causing Lynch Syndrome phenotype (0.00014), suggesting that the variant may be a benign polymorphism. c.3478G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Breast Cancer (Maxwell_2015, Pinto_2016, Yadav_2016, Guindalini_2022, McDonald_2022), however, these reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variants have been reported (BRCA1 c.2309C>A, p.Ser770X (Pinto 2016); BRCA2 c.5946delT, p.Ser1982ArgfsX22 (internal sample)), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 35264596, 25503501, 36315513, 27553368, 23621914, 27878467). Twelve submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as either likely benign (n=6) or VUS (n=6). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign.
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000410385 SCV001297512 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 5 2017-09-23 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000410385 SCV004018875 likely benign Lynch syndrome 5 2023-03-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign. 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].
