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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.K453N variant (also known as c.1359G>C), located in coding exon 12 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1359. The lysine at codon 453 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. In one study, this variant was reported in 1/1893 women with epithelial ovarian cancer (Pal T et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2012 Nov; 107(10):1783-90). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

This missense variant replaces lysine with asparagine at codon 453 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with breast and uterine cancers (PMID: 34326862), kidney cancer (PMID: 29684080), and ovarian cancer (PMID: 23047549). In a large breast cancer case-control study, this variant has been reported in 4/60466 cases and 2/53461 unaffected controls (PMID: 33471991). This variant has been identified in 2/250974 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. -

Variant summary: The MLH1 c.1359G>C (p.Lys453Asn) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/5 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/121006 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000083, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic MLH1 variant (0.0007105). This variant has been reported in one OvC patient without strong evidence for causality. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as VUS until more evidence becomes available. -
