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]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense variant replaces cysteine with tyrosine at codon 124 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with kidney cancer (PMID: 29684080). This variant has been identified in 3/282810 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.C124Y variant (also known as c.371G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 371. The cysteine at codon 124 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. In a study of whole-exome sequencing in patients with features of Cowden syndrome (CS) or Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS) and negative PTEN testing, this alteration was identified in 0/87 patients with CS or BRRS and 1/3476 patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) (Yehia L et al. PLoS Genet, 2018 Apr;14:e1007352). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 124 of the MLH1 protein (p.Cys124Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs730881736, gnomAD 0.002%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MLH1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182515). Invitae Evidence Modeling incorporating data from in vitro experimental studies (internal data) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt MLH1 function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
