International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000074951 SCV000108166 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon
GeneDx RCV000479887 SCV000568733 pathogenic not provided 2016-03-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This duplication of 4 nucleotides in MSH6 is denoted c.3932_3935dupAAGT at the cDNA level and p.Ile1313SerfsX7 (I1313SfsX7) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are duplicated in braces, is GAGG[AAGT]TATT. The duplication causes a frameshift which changes an Isoleucine to a Serine at codon 1313, and creates a premature stop codon at position 7 of the new reading frame. Even though nonsense-mediated decay is not expected to occur due to the position of the variant, it is significant since the last 48 amino acids are no longer translated correctly, and it is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. This variant disrupts an MSH2 binding site in domain V of the MutS domain (Kariola 2002, Terui 2013). MSH6 c.3932_3935dupAAGT, also known as c.3932_3935dup4 using alternative nomenclature, has been observed in at least two individuals from a single family, one of whom had a diagnosis of colorectal or endometrial cancer (Ramsoekh 2008). The adjacent variant MSH6 c.3934_3937dupGTTA, which also results in a frameshift at this residue (p.Ile1313SerfsX7), has been observed in at least two other individuals with a clinical history of a Lynch syndrome associated cancer and/or colon polyps, one of whom was also diagnosed with breast cancer (Susswein 2015, Yurgelun 2015). Based on currently available evidence, we consider this variant to be pathogenic.
Invitae RCV001854285 SCV002150083 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2022-10-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89483). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the MSH6 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu1330Valfs*12) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 14520694, 15236168, 19851887, 21155762, 24440087). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 18625694). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ile1313Serfs*7) in the MSH6 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 48 amino acid(s) of the MSH6 protein.
Ambry Genetics RCV002371906 SCV002626106 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2018-11-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.3932_3935dupAAGT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the MSH6 gene, results from a duplication of AAGT at nucleotide position 3932, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.I1313Sfs*7). This mutation was reported in a family meeting either Amsterdam II or revised Bethesda criteria (Ramsoekh D et al. Gut 2008 Nov;57:1539-44). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
