Genes affected
MLH1 (HGNC:7127): (mutL homolog 1) The protein encoded by this gene can heterodimerize with mismatch repair endonuclease PMS2 to form MutL alpha, part of the DNA mismatch repair system. When MutL alpha is bound by MutS beta and some accessory proteins, the PMS2 subunit of MutL alpha introduces a single-strand break near DNA mismatches, providing an entry point for exonuclease degradation. The encoded protein is also involved in DNA damage signaling and can heterodimerize with DNA mismatch repair protein MLH3 to form MutL gamma, which is involved in meiosis. This gene was identified as a locus frequently mutated in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC). [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 09, 2017Variant summary: The MLH1 c.80G>A (p.Arg27Gln) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide, resulting in a missense change in the histidine kinase-like ATPase, C-terminal domain (InterPro). 3/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in the large control database ExAC at a frequency of 0.0000165 (2/121156 control chromosomes), which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic MLH1 variant (0.0007105). The variant has been reported in a patient with early onset breast cancer without strong evidence for or against pathogenicity (Maxwell_Genet Med_2014). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have classified this variant as one of uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as a VUS. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthApr 18, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 27 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 25503501) and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 30729418). The individual affected with Lynch syndrome also carried a pathogenic variant in MLH1 that could explain the observed phenotype. This variant has been identified in 5/282624 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 19, 2019This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant.

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 06, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 27 of the MLH1 protein (p.Arg27Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs138705565, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer or breast cancer (PMID: 25503501, 30729418). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216337). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MLH1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
