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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 3-37011825-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-37011825-C-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 455446.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (REVEL=0.112). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 2 Pathogenic:1

Jul 17, 2023

Myriad Genetics, Inc.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation.

Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1

Mar 06, 2017

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. While this particular variant has not been reported in the literature, loss-of-function variants in MLH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15713769, 24362816). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal at codon 184 (p.Ser184*) of the MLH1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1

May 18, 2021

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.S184* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.551C>G), located in coding exon 7 of the MLH1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 551. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 7. 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.
