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: Pathogenic. The variant received 12 ACMG points.

PVS1

Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.04095112 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 4.3, offset of 31, new splice context is: tcgGTacat. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.

PM2

Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;

PP5

Variant 3-37048610-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr3-37048610-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 89973.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1989+1G>A variant in MLH1 has been reported in at least 3 individuals with Lynch syndrome and 1 individual with colerectal cancer (Taylor 2003 PMID: 14635101, Pigatto 2004 PMID: 20233461, Caldes 2004 PMID: 15289847, Mangold 2005 PMID: 15849733). The variant was absent from large population studies. This variant occurs within the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Loss of function of the MLH1 gene is an established disease mechanism in Lynch syndrome. The variant has been reported in ClinVar (Variant ID 89973) and has been classified as pathogenic by the InSIGHT expert panel. Two additional variants involving this nucleotide (c.1989+1G>T and c.1989+1G>C) have been identified in individuals with Lynch syndrome and/or colerectal cancer and are classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic in ClinVar by the InSiGHT expert panel. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant Lynch sundrome. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: PVS1_Strong, PM5_Strong, PS4_Moderate, PM2_Supporting. -

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 17 of the MLH1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MLH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15713769, 24362816). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Lynch syndrome-related cancers (PMID: 10323887, 14635101, 15289847, 15849733, 16216036, 20233461, 25025451). This variant is also known as IVS17+1G>A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89973). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.1989+1G>A intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to A substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 17 of the MLH1 gene. This variant has been reported in families with Lynch syndrome and with tumors exhibiting either loss of MLH1 protein on immunohistochemistry or high microsatellite instability (Taylor CF et al. Hum. Mutat., 2003 Dec;22:428-33; Mangold E et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2005 Sep;116:692-702). This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site and will result in the creation or strengthening of a novel splice donor site. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as a disease-causing mutation. -
