Ambry Genetics RCV002453384 SCV002738884 pathogenic Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Q86* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.256C>T), located in coding exon 3 of the MLH1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 256. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 3. This mutation has been reported in Polish, Hispanic, and Chinese patients with Lynch syndrome (Kurzawski G et al. Clin. Genet. 2006 Jan;69:40-7; Sunga AY et al. Cancer Genet, 2017 Apr;212-213:1-7; Tian W et al. Int J Cancer, 2019 09;145:1290-1298). Of note, this alteration is also designated as Q86X and p.Gln86Ter in published literature. In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Invitae RCV002513802 SCV003525126 pathogenic Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal neoplasms 2022-02-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln86*) in the MLH1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MLH1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 15713769, 24362816). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 90121). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 16451135, 28449805). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency).
Myriad Genetics, Inc. RCV003451122 SCV004186416 pathogenic Colorectal cancer, hereditary nonpolyposis, type 2 2023-07-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant is considered pathogenic. This variant creates a termination codon and is predicted to result in premature protein truncation.
