not provided Uncertain:1
This variant is denoted MLH1 c.1433A>G at the cDNA level, p.Asp478Gly (D478G) at the protein level, and results in the change of an Aspartic Acid to a Glycine (GAT>GGT). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. MLH1 Asp478Gly was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Aspartic Acid and Glycine differ in polarity, charge, size or other properties, this is considered a non-conservative amino acid substitution. MLH1 Asp478Gly occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is located in NLS (nuclear localization signal) of hMLH1 (Hardt 2011) and the interaction region of EXO (UniProt). In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available information, it is unclear whether MLH1 Asp478Gly is pathogenic or benign. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms Uncertain:1
This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with MLH1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418302). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. 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. This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with glycine at codon 478 of the MLH1 protein (p.Asp478Gly). The aspartic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and glycine. -
