Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP4 PM2_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000249.4: c.2041G>C variant in MLH1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Alanin by Prolin at amino acid 681 (p.Ala681Pro). The variant is not reported in gnomAD (PM2_supporting). The variant was detected in one CRC/Endometrial MSI-H tumour using a standard panel of 5-10 markers and/or loss of MMR protein expression consistent with the variant location (PP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance (VUS) for Lynch-Syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen InSiGHT Hereditary Colorectal Cancer/ Polyposis VCEP: PM2_SUP, PP4 (VCEP specifications version 1) LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA10578272/MONDO:0007356/115

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]
