International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (InSiGHT) RCV000075550 SCV000106547 pathogenic Lynch syndrome 2013-09-05 reviewed by expert panel research Coding sequence variation resulting in a stop codon with functional domain
Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health RCV000581002 SCV000684800 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-10-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 19 of the MLH1 gene, creating a premature translation stop signal in the last coding exon. This variant is predicted to escape nonsense-mediated decay and be expressed as a truncated protein. Functional assays have demonstrated the variant impacts PMS2 interaction (PMID: 12810663). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 8574961, 11720433, 20233461, 27329137). 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 (clinicalgenome.org). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Invitae RCV000686456 SCV000813975 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2022-12-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp712*) in the MLH1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 45 amino acid(s) of the MLH1 protein. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the MLH1 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr750*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10422993, 16338176, 20533529). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90065). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 8574961, 12624141, 12810663, 15855432, 20233461). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency).

Ambry Genetics RCV000581002 SCV002731079 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2023-02-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.W712* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2135G>A), located in coding exon 19 of the MLH1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2135. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 19. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theMLH1 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 46 amino acids of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and the impacted region is critical for protein function (Ambry internal data). This alteration has been observed in at least one individual with a personal and/or family history that is consistent with MLH1-related disease (Ambry internal data). This pathogenic mutation has been reported in multiple families with HNPCC/Lynch syndrome where the proband's tumor showed microsatellite instability (Liu B et al. Nat. Med. 1996 Feb;2:169-74; Coleman MG et al. Br. J. Cancer. 2001 Nov;85:1486-91). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
