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]

Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 2 Uncertain:1Benign:2
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Mar 13, 2023This variant is considered benign. This variant is a silent/synonymous amino acid change and it is not expected to impact splicing. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCounsylFeb 14, 2017- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaMay 02, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:3
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 05, 2014This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 12, 2019Variant summary: The variant, MLH1 c.1743G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide resulting in a synonymous change. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.1e-05 in 276996 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MLH1 causing Lynch Syndrome (6.1e-05 vs 0.00071), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. The variant, c.1743G>A has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with colorectal cancer (Crucianelli_2014). However, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 11, 2018This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
