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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -6 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.54).
• BP6: Variant 3-37008876-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr3-37008876-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 479709.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=6, Uncertain_significance=1}.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.63 with no splicing effect.

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1 Benign:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano	Sep 30, 2022	To the best of our knowledge, the variant has not been reported in individuals with MLH1-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000004 (1/251454 chromosomes, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using software algorithms for the prediction of the effect of nucleotide changes on splicing yielded predictions that this variant does not affect MLH1 mRNA splicing . Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:2

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Ambry Genetics	Aug 01, 2017	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. -
