Description

The c.2079dupA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, results from a duplication of A at nucleotide position 2079, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.C694Mfs*4). This mutation has been detected in multiple colorectal cancer patients (DeRycke MS et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med. 2017 Jul 23;5:553-569; Hansen MF et al. Clin Genet. 2017 Oct;92:405-414). Of note, this alteration is designated as c.2073_2074insA in published literature. 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 inserts 1 nucleotide in exon 4 of the MSH6 gene, creating a frameshift and 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.
