Description

The p.Arg248ProfsX8 variant in MSH6 has not been previously reported in individuals with Lynch syndrome and was absent from large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 248 and leads to a premature termination codon 8 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the MSH6 gene is an established disease mechanism in individuals with autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Arg248ProfsX8 variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch syndrome. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1; PM2.
