Description
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 67 of the MLH1 protein (p.Gly67Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of MLH1-related conditions (PMID: 8521398, 12419761, 15563510, 15613555, 17312306, 18383312, 21239990). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 89992). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MLH1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects MLH1 function (PMID: 9697702, 11555625, 12810663, 16083711, 18094436, 18337503, 22949379). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
