Ambry Genetics RCV002381377 SCV002669722 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2021-05-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Q244* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.730C>T), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 730. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 4. This alteration was identified in an individual diagnosed with colon cancer at 33 and the colon tumor showed loss of expression of MSH2 and MSH6 on immunohistochemistry (IHC) (Steinke V et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2008 May;16:587-92). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Invitae RCV002513799 SCV003524583 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2023-07-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89560). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with colon cancer (PMID: 18301448). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln244*) in the MSH6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MSH6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 18269114, 24362816).
