Description

DNA sequence analysis of the MLH1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.991G>A, in exon 11 that results in an amino acid change, p.Glu331Lys. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with MLH1-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database in six individuals with an overall population frequency of 0.0021% (dbSNP rs550914672). The p.Glu331Lys change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the MLH1 protein that is known to be functional. The p.Glu331Lys substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Glu331Lys change remains unknown at this time.

Description

Variant summary: MLH1 c.991G>A (p.Glu331Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mismatch repair protein, S5 domain 2-like domain (IPR013507) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251340 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.991G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals diagnosed with breast cancer and medulloblastoma without evidence for causality (example: Zhang_2015 and Kwong_2020). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
