Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBP6

The NM_000249.4(MLH1):c.1460G>A(p.Arg487Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000223 in 1,614,058 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R487L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoDec 22, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.00025 (9/35440 chromosomes in Latino/Admixed American subpopulation, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. In the published literature, the variant has been reported in individuals with breast cancer (PMIDs: 33471991 (2021), 25186627 (2015), see also LOVD (http://databases.lovd.nl/shared/genes/MLH1)),as well as in an individual with cholangiocarcinoma (PMID: 30578687 (2019)). Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingDivision of Medical Genetics, University of WashingtonMay 05, 2020To our knowledge, this sequence variant has not been previously reported in the literature. This variant has an overall allele frequency of 0.00004242 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico analyses predict that this variant may not alter protein structure/function. At this time, it is unknown whether or not this variant increases cancer risk; therefore, we interpret it as a variant of uncertain significance. BP4 -
