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]

Significance: Benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The His718Tyr variant (rs2020873) in MLH1 is present in various populations at f requencies ranging from ~1% to ~16% and is more common individuals with African ancestry. In addition, this variant was reported in patient and control chromoso mes with equal frequncy (Barnetson 2008, Moussa 2011, Weber 1999). Finally, func tional studies have shown the His718Tyr has no discernbile impact on the functio n of the MMR complex (Martinez 2010, Kondo 2003). Therefore this variant is beni gn and not expected to have clinical significance. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

The MLH1 p.His718Tyr variant was identified in 6 of 2626 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.002) from individuals with sporadic colorectal cancer or suspected HNPCC, none of whom met complete requirements of the Amsterdam or Bethesda criteria (Kim 2004, Kondo 2003, Takahashi 2007, Moussa 2011, Schafmayer 2007). This variant was also identified in 17 of 2254 control chromosomes from the above studies (frequency: 0.008), in the 1000 Genomes Project with a frequency of 0.028, and in the Exome Variant Server ESP Project with a frequency of 0.07 amongst African American alleles, suggesting that this variant may represent a benign polymorphism in certain populations. The variant was also reported in dbSNP (rs2020873) and LOVD. In vitro MMR assays and yeast hybrid-two assays examining the ability of the variant to repair a heteroduplex DNA with mismatch bases found that its activity was similar to that of wildtype (Kondo 2003, Takahashi 2007), suggesting that this is a nonpathogenic alteration. The p.His718 residue is conserved across mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen, SIFT, AlignGVGD) suggest that the p.His718Tyr variant may impact the protein. However, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information, we cannot determine the clinical significance of this variant with certainty at this time, although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. In summary, this variant is classified as predicted benign. -
