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]

Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 2 Pathogenic:2
Jul 18, 2023
Myriad Genetics, Inc.
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered pathogenic. Functional studies indicate this variant impacts protein function [PMID: 16083711, 16982745, 20020535, 22736432]. This variant is strongly associated with more severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals with pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726]. This variant is expected to disrupt protein structure [Myriad internal data]. -

Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The missense variant p.G67R in MLH1 (NM_000249.4) has been reported previously in an affected inidvidual (Raevaara TE et al). Functional studies have shown a damaging effect (Avdievich E et al). It has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic.The p.G67R variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD Exomes and is novel (not in any individuals) in 1000 Genomes.The p.G67R missense variant is predicted to be damaging by both SIFT and PolyPhen2. The glycine residue at codon 67 of MLH1 is conserved in all mammalian species. The nucleotide c.199 in MLH1 is predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The MLH1 c.199G>C (p.Gly67Arg) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPs&GO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant is absent in 120848 control chromosomes but has been reported in multiple affected individuals in the literature. In addition, functional studies report the loss of MMR activity (Ellison_2001, Raevaara_2005). Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 67 of the MLH1 protein (p.Gly67Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 8521398, 12419761, 15563510, 15613555, 16083711, 17312306, 18383312, 21239990). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495763). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MLH1 function (PMID: 9697702, 11555625, 12810663, 16083711, 18094436, 18337503). This variant disrupts the p.Gly67 amino acid residue in MLH1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8521398, 12419761, 15563510, 15613555, 17312306, 18383312, 21239990). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
