Description

The c.3485_3487delCTG variant (also known as p.A1162del) is located in coding exon 6 of the MSH6 gene. This variant results from an in-frame CTG deletion at nucleotide positions 3485 to 3487. This results in the in-frame deletion of an alanine at codon 1162. This alteration has been identified in three individuals with endometrial cancer and ages at diagnosis ranged from 45y to 54y. One of the individuals was also diagnosed with rectal cancer at the age of 60y. Tumor results for two of the individuals revealed loss of MSH6 protein expression on immunohistochemistry (IHC) while the third individual had a family history that met Amsterdam criteria (Ambry internal data). The alteration was also reported in a patient with endometrial cancer and rectal cancer diagnosed at the ages of 53y and 61y, respectively. Furthermore, tumor results from the endometrial cancer revealed microsatellite instability (MSI-H) (Goodfellow PJ et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 2003 May;100(10: 5908-13). This alteration has also been reported in an individual with a personal history of uterine and breast cancers, and family history of uterine, colon and breast cancers (Schwartz CJ et al. Clin Cancer Res, 2022 Jan;28:404-413). The alanine residue resides in a well-defined functional domain and is adjacent to a helix that contains the MSH6 ATP binding p-loop (Warren JJ et al. Mol. Cell 2007 May;26(4):579-92). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE 2012 ; 7(10):e46688). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.

Description

This variant is an in-frame deletion of an alanine in the the MSH6 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with endometrial cancer, uterine, colorectal, breast cancer, and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 22658618, 28514183, 28888541, 34667028, ClinVar: SCV000172773). This variant has not been identified 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.
