Description

The p.Y1159* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.3477C>A), located in coding exon 6 of the MSH6 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 3477. This changes the amino acid from a tyrosine to a stop codon within coding exon 6. This mutation was identified in a single French family suspected of Lynch syndrome in one study (Bonadona V et al. JAMA 2011 Jun;305:2304-10). 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.

Description

This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 6 of the MSH6 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is expected to result in an absent or non-functional protein product. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MSH6 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
