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 histidine with arginine at codon 543 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 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 breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 34326862). This variant has been identified in 5/251316 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.H543R variant (also known as c.1628A>G), located in coding exon 14 of the MLH1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1628. The histidine at codon 543 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 543 of the MLH1 protein (p.His543Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs730881742, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast and ovarian cancer (PMID: 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 182526). 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 95%. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The MLH1 p.His543Arg variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic, MutDB, Insight Colon Cancer Gene Variant Database, Zhejiang Colon Cancer Database, Mismatch Repair Genes Variant Database, and Insight Hereditary Tumors Database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs730881742) â€šÃ„ÃºWith Uncertain significance alleleâ€šÃ„Ã¹, ClinVar (classified uncertain significance by GeneDx, Ambry Genetics, Invitae and Counsyl), Clinvitae (4x), UMD-LSDB, and in control databases in 5 of 246086 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include European Non-Finnish in 5 of 111582 chromosomes (freq: 0.00005), while not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.His543Arg residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -
