Genes affected
MLH3 (HGNC:7128): (mutL homolog 3) This gene is a member of the MutL-homolog (MLH) family of DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes. MLH genes are implicated in maintaining genomic integrity during DNA replication and after meiotic recombination. The protein encoded by this gene functions as a heterodimer with other family members. Somatic mutations in this gene frequently occur in tumors exhibiting microsatellite instability, and germline mutations have been linked to hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer type 7 (HNPCC7). Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 28, 2023The c.3500G>A (p.S1167N) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 4) of the MLH3 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3500, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 1167 to be replaced by an asparagine (N). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 7 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 26, 2023In 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. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant  is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 544278). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MLH3-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs769350518, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1167 of the MLH3 protein (p.Ser1167Asn). -
