Ambry Genetics RCV000214998 SCV000273733 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2024-08-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.K453N variant (also known as c.1359G>C), located in coding exon 12 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1359. The lysine at codon 453 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. In one study, this variant was reported in 1/1893 women with epithelial ovarian cancer (Pal T et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2012 Nov; 107(10):1783-90). This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000590046 SCV000696106 uncertain significance not provided 2016-09-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: The MLH1 c.1359G>C (p.Lys453Asn) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/5 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. This variant was found in 1/121006 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0000083, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic MLH1 variant (0.0007105). This variant has been reported in one OvC patient without strong evidence for causality. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classified this variant as uncertain significance. Taken together, this variant is classified as VUS until more evidence becomes available.

Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV004567360 SCV005897183 likely benign Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 2 2024-11-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered likely benign. This variant is strongly associated with less severe personal and family histories of cancer, typical for individuals without pathogenic variants in this gene [PMID: 27363726].
