Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000587991 SCV000695879 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2016-11-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The MSH6 c.3646+1G>T variant involves the alteration of a conserved intronic nucleotide. One in silico tool predicts a damaging outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict that this variant abolishes the 5' splicing donor site. This variant is absent in 121332 control chromosomes. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases/clinical diagnostic laboratories; nor evaluated for functional impact by in vivo/vitro studies. Taken together, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic.
Invitae RCV001860121 SCV002308105 likely pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2021-08-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 7 of the MSH6 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18269114, 24362816). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MSH6-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495716). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site.
Ambry Genetics RCV003278922 SCV004006210 likely pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-03-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3646+1G>T intronic variant results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 7 of the MSH6 gene. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to result in aberrant splicing. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. The resulting transcript is predicted to be in-frame and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay; however, direct evidence is unavailable. The exact functional effect of the altered amino acid sequence is unknown; however, the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV003451326 SCV004185557 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 5 2023-08-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function.
