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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 02, 2021Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: reduced protein expression and MMR repair activity compared to wild type (Ellison 2004, Hinrichsen 2013); Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with personal and/or family histories consistent with Lynch syndrome (Taylor 2003, Tournier 2008); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 19224586, 15475387, 23403630, 22290698, 25525159, 14635101, 18561205, 31784484) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 29, 2021The p.G101D variant (also known as c.302G>A), located in coding exon 3 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 302. The glycine at codon 101 is replaced by aspartic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. Two in vitro functional studies demonstrated reduced MMR function for p.G101D when compared to wild-type MLH1 in yeast (Ellison AR et al. Nucleic Acids Res. 2004 ; 32(18):5321-38; Hinrichsen I et al. Clin. Cancer Res. 2013 May; 19(9):2432-41). The Hinrichsen study also found decreased expression (10-20% relative expression) for this variant when compared to wild-type. Based on internal structural analysis, this variant is highly destabilizing and resides in a known motif within close proximity to known pathogenic variants (Wu H et al. Acta Crystallogr F Struct Biol Commun. 2015 Aug; 71(Pt 8):981-5; Hol WG et al. Nature. 1978 Jun; 273(5662):443-6). The p.G101D variant was also identified in a family meeting Bethesda guidelines (Taylor CF et al. Hum. Mutat. 2003 Dec; 22(6):428-33). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
