Ambry Genetics RCV000115424 SCV000185242 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-02-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.C1275Y variant (also known as c.3824G>A), located in coding exon 9 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3824. The cysteine at codon 1275 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000115424 SCV000685447 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-04-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 1275 of the MSH6 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been observed in one individual each affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25186627) and low-grade glioma (PMID: 26689913). This variant has been identified in 8/282376 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV001194392 SCV001363900 uncertain significance not specified 2019-10-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MSH6 c.3824G>A (p.Cys1275Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the ATPase domain of DNA mismatch repair MUTS family domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 250998 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.3824G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with cancer (Lu_2015, Tung_2014). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six ClinVar submissions (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000410495 SCV004018994 likely benign Lynch syndrome 5 2023-09-05 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: 27363726].

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001354737 SCV001549424 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The MSH6 p.Cys1275Tyr variant was identified in 1 of 4316 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0002) from individuals or families with breast cancer (Tung 2015). The variant was also identified in dbSNP (ID: rs150990541) as "With Uncertain significance allele", ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx, Invitae, Ambry Genetics, and three other submitters), Cosmic (1x in Large intestine tissue), and MutDB. The variant was not identified in GeneInsight-COGR, UMD-LSDB, Zhejiang University Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, or Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was identified in control databases in 9 of 276850 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the European population in 9 of 126428 chromosomes (freq: 0.00007), while the variant was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Cys1275 residue is conserved in mammals but not in more distantly related organisms, and four out of five 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. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
