Ambry Genetics RCV000132028 SCV000187087 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-06-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R243C variant (also known as c.727C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 727. The arginine at codon 243 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in 1/1120 pediatric cancer patients, who underwent whole genome sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing; this patient was diagnosed with a high grade glioma (Zhang J et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2015 Dec;373:2336-2346). This amino acid position is not 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 RCV000132028 SCV000908357 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-03-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 243 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 not been reported in individuals affected with MSH6-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251088 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.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV000410426 SCV004019002 uncertain significance Lynch syndrome 5 2023-03-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk.
