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 testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 06, 2023This missense variant replaces proline with arginine at codon 496 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with endometrial cancer, whose tumor demonstrated microsatellite stability, normal MLH1 expression and lack of MSH2 expression (PMID: 17250665), as well as in two individuals affected with breast cancer (PMID: 32068069). This variant has been identified in 16/251484 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. -
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 17, 2023This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoNov 29, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00043 (8/18394 chromosomes in East Asian subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with colon cancer (PMID: 29684080 (2018)), lung cancer (PMID: 30093976 (2018)), endometrial cancer (PMID: 17250665 (2007)), and personal/family history of breast/ovarian cancer (PMID: 32068069 (2020)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded conflicting predictions that this variant is deleterious or benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMay 28, 2024Variant summary: MLH1 c.1487C>G (p.Pro496Arg) 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 6.4e-05 in 251484 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MLH1 causing Lynch Syndrome (6.4e-05 vs 0.00071), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1487C>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with colorectal cancer, lung cancer and breast and/or ovarian cancer (Bianchi_2007, Chan_2018, Kwong_2020, Hu_2022). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22290698, 17250665, 30093976, 35449176, 32068069). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89751). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
