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]

The MLH1 c.1039-8_1039-5insTTTA variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the UMD-LSDB databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs535965616) as “with benign, likely benign, uncertain significance allele and ClinVar (interpreted as "benign" by Invitae). The variant was identified in control databases in 4 of 140,558 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 12,390 chromosomes (freq: 0.00008), European in 3 of 70,584 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), while the variant was not observed in the Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, Other, and South Asian populations. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 3 out of 4 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
