Invitae | RCV000532919 | SCV000624583 | pathogenic | Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms | 2018-05-15 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | A gross deletion of the genomic region encompassing the full coding sequence of the MLH1 gene has been identified. The boundaries of this event are unknown as the deletion extends beyond the assayed region for this gene and therefore may encompass additional genes. Gross deletions of the entire MLH1 gene have been reported in individuals affected with colorectal cancer and Lynch syndrome (PMID: 12373605, 14729822, 15942939, 18330910, 28135145). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89576). Loss-of-function variants in MLH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15713769, 24362816). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
