Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV000075457 SCV000917659 likely pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2018-08-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: MLH1 c.1989+1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Five predict the variant abolishes a 5 splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 245820 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1989+1G>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with Lynch Syndrome (Lamberti_1999). This data does not allow a conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.
Invitae RCV000794468 SCV000933878 likely pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2020-04-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 17 of the MLH1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MLH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15713769, 24362816). This variant has been observed in a family affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 10323887, 16216036). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89975). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency).
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV001180388 SCV001345311 likely pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2019-12-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant causes a G>T nucleotide substitution at the +1 position of intron 17 of the MLH1 gene. Splice site prediction tools predict that this variant may have a significant impact on RNA splicing. This variant has been reported in individuals from Lynch syndrome families (PMID 10323887, 16216036) and with suspected Lynch syndrome (PMID 15849733). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Loss of MLH1 function is a known mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV001180388 SCV002717551 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2018-05-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.1989+1G>T intronic pathogenic mutation results from a G to T substitution one nucleotide after coding exon 17 of the MLH1 gene. This variant has been reported in a German Lynch syndrome family meeting Amsterdam I criteria, containing three MSI-High tumors and segregating with disease in 3/3 affected individuals (Lamberti C et al. Gut, 1999 Jun;44:839-43; Mangold E et al. Int. J. Cancer, 2005 Sep;116:692-702; Mangold E et al. J. Pathol., 2005 Dec;207:385-95). 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/]). Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice donor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Alterations that disrupt the canonical splice site are expected to cause aberrant splicing, resulting in an abnormal protein or a transcript that is subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
