The serine at codon 44 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This well-characterized alteration has been previously described in a family with Lynch syndrome and was found to segregate with disease in an early study linking MLH1 to Lynch syndrome (Bronner CE et al. Nature 1994 Mar; 368(6468):258-61). Numerous functional assays evaluating MLH1-PMS2 interaction levels, MLH1 protein expression levels, spontaneous mutation rates, β-galactosidase activity, and dominant mutator deficiency have all demonstrated pathogenic effects of the p.S44F alteration (Pang Q et al. Mol. Cell. Biol. 1997 Aug; 17(8):4465-73; Guerrette S et al. J. Biol. Chem. 1999 Mar; 274(10):6336-41; Ellison AR et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2001 Sep; 10(18):1889-900; Kondo E et al. Cancer Res. 2003 Jun; 63(12):3302-8; Takahashi M et al. Cancer Res. 2007 May; 67(10):4595-604). One study identified this alteration in two unrelated Swedish families with Lynch syndrome that shared the same founding haplotype; a subsequent study identified this alteration in more Swedish Lynch syndrome families (Tannergård P et al. Cancer Res. 1995 Dec; 55(24):6092-6; Lagerstedt-Robinson K et al. Oncol Rep. 2016 Nov;36(5):2823-2835). This alteration has been classified as pathogenic using the following lines of evidence: in silico prediction models, segregation with disease, clinical phenotype including tumor characteristics, mutation co-occurrence, and functional studies (Thompson BA et al. Hum. Mutat. 2013 Jan;34:200-9; Thompson BA et al. Nat. Genet. 2014 Feb;46:107-15; available at [www.insight-group.org/variants/classifications/]). Based on the available evidence, p.S44F is classified as a pathogenic mutation. |
