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 5 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000249.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.
• PP5: Variant 3-37048960-GTTC-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-37048960-GTTC-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 433872.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The c.2048_2050delTCT variant (also known as p.F683del) is located in coding exon 18 of the MLH1 gene. This variant results from an in-frame TCT deletion at nucleotide positions 2048 to 2050. This results in the in-frame deletion of a phenylalanine at codon 683. This alteration showed moderate segregation with disease in a family that met Amsterdam II criteria and two family members who tested positive for this alteration also displayed loss of MLH1 protein expression in their tumors by immunohistochemistry (Ambry internal data). Based on internal structural analysis, this alteration is part of a structured region with known function and is more destabilizing than known likely pathogenic variants in the region. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by PROVEAN in silico analysis (Choi Y et al., Bioinformatics 2015 Aug; 31(16):2745-7). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
