Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000249.4(MLH1):c.2154_2155delCA(p.Ile719CysfsTer3) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. H718H) has been classified as Likely benign.
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]

The c.2154_2155delCA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 19 of the MLH1 gene, results from a deletion of two nucleotides at nucleotide positions 2154 to 2155, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.I719Cfs*3). This variant has been reported in one Portuguese family meeting Amsterdam I criteria and in an individual diagnosed with MSI-H colorectal cancer showing loss of MLH1 on immunohistochemistry and having a family history of colorectal cancer (Isidro G et al. Hum. Mutat., 2003 Nov;22:419-20; Bonnet D et al. Dig Liver Dis, 2012 Jun;44:515-22).This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
