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
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingKCCC/NGS Laboratory, Kuwait Cancer Control CenterJul 07, 2023MLH1 (Arg497fs): This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg497Glyfs*11) in the MLH1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the ExAC database. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome and Muir-Torre syndrome (PMID: 15872200, 18270343). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89752) with 3 submissions, all pathogenic, 3 stars, no conflict, and reviewed by an expert panel. Loss-of-function variants in MLH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15713769, 24362816). Therefore, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. . -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 30, 2021The c.1489delC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 13 of the MLH1 gene, results from a deletion of one nucleotide at nucleotide position 1489, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.R497Gfs*11). This mutation was identified in a patient with colorectal cancer at 46 and Muir-Torre phenotype (Hampel H et al. N. Engl. J. Med. 2005 May;352:1851-60; South CD et al. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 2008 Feb;100:277-81). This mutation was also reported in a patient with endometrial cancer showing absent MLH1 and PMS2 protein expression by immunohistochemistry (Moline J et al. Gynecol. Oncol. 2013 Jul;130:121-6). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, 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. -
