GeneDx RCV000413655 SCV000490623 pathogenic not provided 2018-01-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This duplication of one nucleotide in MSH6 is denoted c.3573dupT at the cDNA level and p.Val1192CysfsX2 (V1192CfsX2) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the base that is duplicated in braces, is ATTTTT[T]GTTG. The duplication causes a frameshift, which changes a Valine to a Cysteine at codon 1192 and creates a premature stop codon at position 2 of the new reading frame. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through either protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. MSH6 c.3573dupT has been observed in one individual with endometrial cancer demonstrating absence of MSH6 protein on immunohistochemistry whose family met revised Bethesda Criteria guidelines, as well as in one individual from a multiple colorectal cancer or Lynch syndrome family (Baglietto 2010, Buchanan 2014). We consider this variant to be pathogenic.
Invitae RCV000684804 SCV000551108 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-02-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372414). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val1192Cysfs*2) 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 present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with endometrial cancer and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 24323032, 27064304).
Ambry Genetics RCV000490868 SCV000580187 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-04-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3573dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 7 of the MSH6 gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 3573, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.V1192Cfs*2). This mutation has been reported in multiple families with Lynch syndrome (Baglietto L et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2010 Feb;102:193-201; Sjursen W et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2016 Mar;4:223-31; Kwong A et al. J Mol Diagn, 2020 04;22:544-554; Brand RE et al. Fam Cancer, 2020 04;19:169-175), including a patient with MSH6-deficient endometrial cancer (Buchanan DD et al. J. Clin. Oncol. 2014 Jan;32(2):90-100) and a colorectal cancer patient with concordant IHC results (Latham A et al. J Clin Oncol, 2019 02;37:286-295). This mutation is also designated as c.3572-3573insT in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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.
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000490868 SCV000685416 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 7 of the MSH6 gene, creating a frameshift and premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has been identified in 1/245904 chromosomes 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.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001192428 SCV001360541 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer 2019-05-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH6 c.3573dupT (p.Val1192CysfsX2) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory (e.g. c.3609_3612delTGCA (p.His1203fsX12), c.3699_3702delAGAA (p.Lys1233fsX6), and c.3799_3800delAT (p.Met1267fsX7)). The variant was absent in 250974 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The variant, c.3573dupT, has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with endometrial cancer, with the absence of MSH6 protein expression in the tumor tissue (Baglietto 2010, Buchanan_2014, Sjursen_2016). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant in ClinVar after 2014, and classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.

All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health RCV003995915 SCV004835095 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2023-05-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3573dup (p.Val1192Cysfs*2) variant in the MSH6 gene is located on the exon 7 and is predicted to cause reading frame shift that introduces a premature translation termination codon (p.Val1192Cysfs*2), resulting in an absent or disrupted protein product. The variant has been reported in multiple unrelated individuals affected with Lynch syndrome-associated cancers (PMID: 32068069, 29368341, 27064304, 30376427, 24323032, 32459922). Loss-of-function variants located downstream to this position have been reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 20028993). The variant is reported in ClinVar as pathogenic (ID: 372414). This variant is absent in the general population database (gnomAD). Therefore, the c.3573dup (p.Val1192Cysfs*2) variant of MSH6 has been classified as pathogenic.
Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV000460316 SCV000592650 pathogenic Carcinoma of colon no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The c.3573dup OR p.Val1192Cys_fsX2 variant has been reported in 1 proband with a Lynch syncrome related cancer (Baglietto_2009_20028993). The p.Val1192Cys_fsX2 variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1192 and leads to a premature stop codon 2 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants are an established mechanism of disease for the MSH6 gene. In summary, based upon the above information, this variant meets are criteria for pathogenicity.
