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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago	Aug 03, 2020	DNA sequence analysis of the MLH1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1964T>C, in exon 17 that results in an amino acid change, p.Ile655Thr. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a low frequency of 0.016% in the European sub-population (dbSNP rs63751225). The p.Ile655Thr change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the MLH1 protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Ile655Thr substitution. The p.Ile655Thr change has previously been described in a family with gastric cancer (PMID: 8938136); however, functional studies have demonstrated mismatch repair activity similar to that of the wild type allele in the presence of this sequence change (PMID: 17510385). Due to these contrasting evidences, the clinical significance of the p.Ile655Thr change remains unknown at this time. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Dec 11, 2023	Variant summary: MLH1 c.1964T>C (p.Ile655Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein Mlh1, C-terminal domain (IPR032189) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.6e-05 in 251246 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MLH1 causing Lynch Syndrome (7.6e-05 vs 0.00071), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1964T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals with a personal or family history of colorectal or other MLH1-related cancers, and at-least one instance of co-occurrence in a patient with hMLH1 promoter hypermethylation suggestive of a sporadic etiology has been ascertained (e.g., Irmejs_2007, Keller_1996, Potocnik_2001, Ravnik-Glavac_2000, Schubert_2019, Svensson_2022, Tsoaousis_2019). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch syndrome. A co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported (MSH2 c.1786_1788del, p.Asn596del; Irmejs_2007), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. The most pronounced variant effect results in 74% of normal activity in an in-vitro MMR assay and >75% relative MLH1 expression (Takahashi_2007). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 31697235, 22290698, 25637381, 18383312, 11179758, 17348456, 22703879, 8938136, 27647783, 11376800, 10970186, 30426508, 35430768, 17510385, 31159747). Multiple submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Multiple submitters reported the variant with conflicting assessments (likely benign, n = 6; VUS, n = 6). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome

Uncertain:1Benign:2

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Oct 29, 2018	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. -
