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]

Submissions by phenotype

Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 2 Pathogenic:4
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Jul 20, 2023This variant is considered likely pathogenic. This variant occurs within a consensus splice junction and is predicted to result in abnormal mRNA splicing of either an out-of-frame exon or an in-frame exon necessary for protein stability and/or normal function. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsJul 25, 2023- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMendelicsMay 28, 2019- -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingHuman Genome Sequencing Center Clinical Lab, Baylor College of MedicineJun 17, 2019The c.1410-2A>G variant in canonical splice site of the MLH1 gene is predicted to result in abnormal splicing of MLH1 mRNA. This variant is extremely rare in general population databases. Therefore, this c.1410-2A>G variant is classified as likely pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 10, 2024The c.1410-2A>G intronic variant results from an A to G substitution two nucleotides before coding exon 13 in the MLH1 gene. This variant was detected in 1/422 Italian pancreatic cancer patients (Puccini A et al. Cancers (Basel), 2022 Sep;14). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice acceptor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is insufficient at this time (Ambry internal data). Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthFeb 16, 2021This variant causes an A to G nucleotide substitution at the -2 position of intron 12 of the MLH1 gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in a pancreatic cancer case-control study in population controls and absent in cases (PMID: 29922827) and in an individual who underwent whole-genome sequencing and was not selected for cancer phenotypes (PMID: 27930734). This variant has been identified in 3/251436 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MLH1 function is a known mechanism of disease (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 21, 2022Canonical splice site variant predicted to result in a null allele in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJun 22, 2023ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 455386). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of this splice site results in activation of a cryptic splice site and exon 13 skipping and introduces a premature termination codon (Invitae). The resulting mRNA is expected to undergo nonsense-mediated decay. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MLH1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs746536721, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 12 of the MLH1 gene. RNA analysis indicates that disruption of this splice site induces altered splicing and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
