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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant results in the loss of the translation start codon (methionine at codon 1) of the MLH1 gene. A functional study has shown that downstream in-frame methionine at codon 35 may be used as an alternative translation start site (PMID: 24302565). However, MLH1 protein lacking p.1-34 showed a significantly reduced mismatch DNA repair activity (~25% of wild type), at a level equivalent to a known pathogenic mutation in a cell-free mismatch repair assay (PMID: 24302565). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MLH1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
