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]

Variant summary: MLH1 c.2084C>A (p.Ser695X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant was absent in 245772 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The c.2084C>A variant has been reported in the literature in one family affected with Lynch Syndrome, with the tumor tissue showing microsatellite instability and lack of the protein (de Leon 2007). The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17505997). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90038). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser695*) in the MLH1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 62 amino acid(s) of the MLH1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 17505997). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90038). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This variant disrupts a region of the MLH1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Lys751Serfs*3) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8797773, 18566915, 18931482, 24802709, 27295708). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.S695* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2084C>A), located in coding exon 18 of the MLH1 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2084. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 18. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
