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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.82).
BP6
Variant 3-37048898-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr3-37048898-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 237327.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0000723 (11/152230) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00212 (11/5184). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00119. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 6 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 3 AD,AR gene
