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 testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Carcinoma of colon Benign:1
Benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The p.Leu653Leu variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located near a splice junction. It is listed in dbSNP database as coming from a "clinical source" (ID#: rs1801426) with an average heterozygosity of 0.022+/-0.102, increasing the likelihood that this is a low frequency benign variant. The variant has been previously reported in the literature in 9 publications in 20 of 2288 proband chromosomes (frequency of 0.013) with colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and endometrial cancer, and was also identified in 39 of 2846 control chromosomes (frequency of 0.014), increasing the likelihood that this is a benign variant (Auclaire_16395668_2006, Buerstedde_ 8592341_1995, Christensen_18547406_2008, Fredriksson_16963262_2006, Kamory_14688830_2003, Lamberti_17095871_2006, Liu_9611074_1998, Scott_11112663_2001). In one report this variant was identified at a higher frequency in controls than in cases (Christensen_18547406_2008). In summary, based on the information above, this variant is classified as Benign. -
