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 testingGeneDxJun 05, 2023Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome-related cancers, as well as individuals with a personal or family history of breast/ovarian cancer (Soares et al., 2017; Zidan et al., 2017; Schneider et al., 2018; Ozdemir et al., 2019; Bora et al., 2022); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29575718, 28932927, 30238922, 22753075, 28828701, 35220195) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 26, 2022The p.G336D variant (also known as c.1007G>A), located in coding exon 11 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1007. The glycine at codon 336 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was detected in 1/60 Brazilian patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer, who fulfilled either Bethesda or Amsterdam criteria (Schneider NB et al. Cancer Med. 2018 May;7:2078-2088). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthMay 08, 2023This missense variant replaces glycine with aspartic acid at codon 336 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 29575718) and an individual affected with endometrial cancer (PMID: 30238922). This variant has been identified in 3/251288 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 14, 2023Variant summary: MLH1 c.1007G>A (p.Gly336Asp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251288 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1007G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with breast cancer, endometrial cancer, or colorectal cancer without strong evidence of causality (Bora_2022, Ozdemir_2019, Schneider_2018, Soares_2018, Zidan_2017). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with prostate cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Lynch syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthSep 23, 2024This missense variant replaces glycine with aspartic acid at codon 336 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 performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 29575718) and an individual affected with endometrial cancer (PMID: 30238922). This variant has been identified in 3/251288 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. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 05, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 336 of the MLH1 protein (p.Gly336Asp). This variant is present in population databases (rs587781750, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Lynch syndrome (PMID: 28828701, 29575718, 30238922, 35220195). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 141442). 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 95%. 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. -
