Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PVS1

The NM_001040108.2(MLH3):​c.2138delC​(p.Thr713AsnfsTer21) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000403 in 1,613,916 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T713T) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

MLH3 Gene-Disease associations (from GenCC):

• colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 7

  Inheritance: AD, AR Classification: MODERATE, LIMITED Submitted by: Ambry Genetics, ClinGen, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 8 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
