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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.846

This variant is denoted MLH1 c.754T>C at the cDNA level, p.Ser252Pro (S252P) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Serine to a Proline (TCA>CCA). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MLH1 Ser252Pro was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Serine and Proline differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. MLH1 Ser252Pro occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is not located in a known functional domain (Hardt 2011). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether MLH1 Ser252Pro is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
