Description

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect: decreased MLH1 protein expression, reduced MMR activity relative to wildtype, and reduced interaction with PMS2 and EXO1 (Guerrette 1999, Kondo 2003, Takahashi 2007); In-frame deletion of 1 amino acid in a non-repeat region; In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27435373, 27247567, 25980754, 28449805, 30376427, 8581513, 9697702, 10037723, 12810663, 16083711, 17510385, 17594722, 20591884, 21120944, 22949379, 24362816, 25117503, 7661930, 18726168, 15996210, 21681552, 25430799, 26777316, 28176205, 23047549, 26681312, 28127413, 28874130, 28640387, 17846840, 28135145, 29520894, 30693488, 12891553, 29929473, 29478780, 10422993, 30402230, 18566915, 29345684, 31350202, 9311737, 31332305, 33504652)

Description

The MLH1 c.1852_1854delAAG; p.Lys618del variant (rs63751247), also known as Lys616del, is a common alteration in individuals diagnosed with Lynch syndrome, and segregates with the disorder (Miyaki 1995, Raevaara 2003, LOVD InSiGHT database). Functional characterization of the variant protein indicates reduced mismatch repair activity due to decreased steady state levels of MLH1 protein (Raevaara 2005, Shimodaira 1998, Takehashi 2007) and reduced localization with PMS2 and EXO1 (Kondo 2003, Raevaara 2005). It is classified as pathogenic in ClinVar (Variation ID: 17080) by the International Society for Gastrointestinal Hereditary Tumours (Thompson 2014). Based on available information, this variant is considered pathogenic. REFERENCES LOVD InSiGHT database: http://chromium.lovd.nl/LOVD2/colon_cancer/variants.php?select_db=MLH1 Kondo E et al.

Description

This variant has been reported in individuals affected with colorectal, endometrial, ovarian, bladder, and prostate cancers and Lynch Syndrome in the published literature (PMIDs: 30521064 (2019), 29929473 (2018), 28176205 (2017), 25117503 (2014), 23047549 (2012), and 20591884 (2010)). In addition, studies indicate that this variant has deleterious effects on MLH1 protein expression in yeast and human cell based functional studies (PMIDs: 29520894 (2018), 16083711 (2005), and 12891553 (2003)). Based on the available information, this variant is classified as pathogenic.
