Genes affected

MLH3 (HGNC:7128): (mutL homolog 3) This gene is a member of the MutL-homolog (MLH) family of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes. MLH genes are implicated in maintaining genomic integrity during DNA replication and after meiotic recombination. The protein encoded by this gene functions as a heterodimer with other family members. Somatic mutations in this gene frequently occur in tumors exhibiting microsatellite instability, and germline mutations have been linked to hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer type 7 (HNPCC7). Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The p.Q200* variant (also known as c.598C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the MLH3 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 598. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 1. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, the evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited; therefore, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln200*) in the MLH3 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in MLH3 cause disease. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MLH3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 410884). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
