- This protein is mutated in endometrial cancers.
- Although genomic rearrangements of MSH6 play a small role in the spectrum of all mutations predisposing to hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), up to 10-20% of patients with MSH6 negative tumors harbor germline rearrangements in this gene.

- These data suggest that bi-allelic mutations of one of the MMR genes should be considered in patients who develop early-onset multiple HNPCC-associated tumors and autoimmune disorders.
- The S144I mutationis located in the DNA binding surface of the PWWP domain, but it only moderately affects domain stability, and it does not perturb DNA binding in vitro.
