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]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 41 of the MLH1 protein (p.Asp41Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 19419416; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 455379). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MLH1 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Asp41 amino acid residue in MLH1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 12624141, 25060679, 25477341). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.D41V pathogenic mutation (also known as c.122A>T), located in coding exon 2 of the MLH1 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 122. The aspartic acid at codon 41 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in multiple families meeting Amsterdam I criteria (Ambry internal data). Based on internal structural analysis, p.D41V is structurally deleterious (Ambry internal data; Wu H et al. Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol Commun, 2015 Aug;71:981-5). An alteration resulting in the same amino acid change, p.D41V (c.122_123delATinsTA) has been reported in 1 of 93 unrelated Taiwanese families that fulfilled the Amsterdam II criteria with concordant MSI and/or IHC, and was not found in 300 controls (Tang R et al, Clin. Genet. 2009 Apr; 75(4):334-45). Further, an alteration at the same codon, p.D41G (c.122A>G) has been classified as pathogenic by multifactorial analysis, which integrates the following lines of evidence to produce a quantitative likelihood of pathogenicity: in silico prediction models, segregation with disease, clinical phenotype including tumor characteristics, mutation co-occurrence, and functional assay results (Thompson B et al. Nat Genet. 2014 Feb;46(2):107-15; available at [www.insight-group.org/variants/classifications/]). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
