Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001357389 SCV001552852 pathogenic Carcinoma of colon no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The MSH6 p.Gly1292IlefsX40 variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the dbSNP, ClinVar, Cosmic, MutDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, Insight Hereditary Tumors Database, databases. The variant was not identified in the 1000 Genomes Project, the NHLBI GO Exome Sequencing Project or the Exome Aggregation Consortium (August 8th 2016) control databases. The c.3860_3873dup variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginning at codon 1292 and leads to a premature stop codon 40 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein and loss of function. Loss of function variants of the MSH6 gene are an established mechanism of disease in Lynch syndrome and this is the type of variant expected to cause the disorder. In summary, based on the above information, this variant meets our laboratory’s criteria to be classified as pathogenic.
