Description

The p.W456* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1368G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1368. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 4. A similar mutation which causes the same protein truncation, c.1367G>A (p.W456*), has been reported in two unrelated endometrial cancer patients, including one who had a synchronous ovarian cancer diagnosis (Egoavil C et al. PLoS ONE, 2013 Nov;8:e79737). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, p.W456* (c.1368G>A) 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.
