Description
MLH1, EXON3, c.226G>A, p.Val76Ile, Heterozygous, Uncertain SignificancernThe MLH1 p.Val76Ile variant was identified in 1 of 976 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.001) from American individuals or families with breast cancer (Tung 2016). The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs878853788) as “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, Ambry Genetics, GeneDx and 2 other submitters), and UMD-LSDB (4x classified as UV). The variant was identified in control databases in 4 of 246184 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.00002 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017), observed in the European Non-Finnish population in 4 of 111652 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004); it was not observed in the African, Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, European Finnish, or South Asian populations. The p.Val76 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact of the Ile variant to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. Assessment Date: 2019/07/15. References (PMIDs): 26976419.
