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]

The 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. -

Variant summary: MLH1 c.1460G>A (p.Arg487Gln) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 251478 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in MLH1 causing Lynch Syndrome (4.4e-05 vs 0.00071), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1460G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with various types of cancer and/or individuals undergoing cancer testing (example: Andrikopoulou_2022, Bhai_2021, Fricke_2020, Poliani_2022, Tung_2015). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. One publication predicts the variant to be neutral based on a consensus predictor (Ali_20112). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22290698, 36531003, 34326862, 33181636, 36356413, 25186627). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89745). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Division of Medical Genetics, University of Washington

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

To 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 -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This 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. -
