Description

The c.3556+3_3556+13del11 intronic variant, located in intron 6 of the MSH6 gene, results from a deletion of 11 nucleotides within intron 6 of the MSH6 gene. This alteration was reported in the germline of two patients with endometrial cancer that demonstrated isolated absence of MSH6 staining on immunohistochemistry (Ambry internal data; Talseth-Palmer BA et al. Hered Cancer Clin Pract, 2010 May;8:5). In addition, subsequent RNA analysis by RT-PCR using transformed lymphocytes showed skipping of exon 6 (Sjursen W et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2016 Mar;4:223-31). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). These nucleotide positions are generally well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice donor site. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
