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 valine with methionine at codon 531 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MLH1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251242 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.V531M variant (also known as c.1591G>A), located in coding exon 14 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1591. The valine at codon 531 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with MLH1-related disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 2/251242 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MLH1 c.1591G>A (p.Val531Met) variant has not been reported in individuals with MLH1-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251242 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 531 of the MLH1 protein (p.Val531Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs764663152, gnomAD 0.0009%). 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: 188166). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MLH1 protein function with a positive 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. -
