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 Likely_benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.074074).
• BP6: Variant 3-37025929-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr3-37025929-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 413382.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=3, Uncertain_significance=3}.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1 Benign:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health	Nov 08, 2019	This missense variant replaces asparagine with serine at codon 444 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may not impact protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold <= 0.5, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been performed for this variant. This variant has been reported in 1 individual affected with colorectal cancer (PMID: 23354017). This variant has been identified in 1/251248 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Dec 04, 2019	This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: The variant of interest causes a missense change involving a non-conserved nucleotide with 5/5 in silico programs predicting a "benign" outcome, although these predictions have yet to be functionally assessed. The variant of interest was observed in the large, broad control population, ExAC, with an allele frequency of 1/121154, which does not exceed the predicted maximum expected allele frequency for a pathogenic MLH1 variant of 1/1407. The variant of interest has been reported in multiple affected individuals to co-occur with another known pathogenic MLH1 mutation, c.2041G>A (p.Ala681Thr) and 1 individual with c.1888_1892delATTGA (p.Ile630X). A reputable database classifies the variant as "Neutral." Therefore, taking all available lines of evidence into consideration, the variant of interest is classified as likely benign until additional information becomes available. -
