Description

Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant is in the second base of exon 12 (of 19 exons). This variant is present in ExAC and gnomAD at a MaxMAF of 0.01% (15 alleles). It is classified in ClinVar as Benign by Ambry and an expert panel (InSiGHT - 3 stars) and as VUS by Invitae and GeneDx. It has not been reported in affected individuals but was seen in the Invitae database in a patient who had another PMS2 variant that was likely to explain disease.

Description

Variant summary: MLH1 c.1040C>A (p.Thr347Asn) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.3e-05 in 206178 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in MLH1 causing Lynch Syndrome (7.3e-05 vs 0.00071), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1040C>A has been reported in the literature in at-least one proband affected with colorectal cancer (Thompson_2013). This report(s) does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Lynch Syndrome. Additionally, it was reported in a patient with sporadic etiology for colorectal cancer as evidenced by BRAF mutation positivity, high MSI, and a negative MLH1 and PMS2 staining by IHC (van der Klift_2016). BRAF mutation and MLH1 promoter hypermethylation have been reported as strong predictors of a negative germline MMR mutational status (Parsons_2012, PMID 22368298). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Additionally, one submission indicates the variant co-occurred with a pathogenic PMS2 variant (variant not indicated). In addition, an expert panel submitter, InSiGHT, and another submitter (evaluation before 2014) have classified the variant as benign. Therefore, based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
