| Abstract | In the inherited syndromes, MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), somatic mutations occur due to loss of the caretaker function that base-repair (BER) and mismatch repair (MMR) genes have, respectively. Recently, we identified a large branch from a MSH6 HNPCC family in which 19 family members are heterozygous or compound heterozygous for MUTYH germ line mutations. MSH6/MUTYH heterozygote mutation carriers display a predominant HNPCC molecular tumour phenotype, with microsatellite instability and under-representation of G>T transversions. A single unique patient is carrier of the MSH6 germline mutation and is compound heterozygote for MUTYH. Unexpectedly, this patient has an extremely mild clinical phenotype with sofar only few adenomas at age 56. Four out of five adenomas show characteristic G>T transversions in APC and/or KRAS2, as seen in MUTYH associated polyposis. No second hit of MSH6 is apparent in any of the adenomas, due to retained MSH6 nuclear expression and a lack of microsatellite instability. Although this concerns only one case, we argue that the chance to find an additional one is extremely small and currently a mouse model with this genotype combination is not available. Moreover, the patients brother who is also compound heterozygous for MUTYH but lacks the MSH6 germline mutation presented with a full blown polyposis coli. In conclusion, these data would support the notion that abrogation of both MSH6 DNA mismatch repair and base repair might be mutually exclusive in humans. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
