Description

The p.M1? pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1A>G) is located in coding exon 1 of the MLH1 gene and results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon (ATG). The N-terminus of MLH1 is known to be functionally and structurally important (Ambry internal analysis; Tempel W et al. Structural Genomics Consortium. PDB ID: 4P7A Crystal Structure of human MLH1). One functional assay demonstrated that the c.1A>G allele encodes an in-frame protein lacking the first 34 amino acids resulting in deficient mismatch repair activity similar to that of a known pathogenic missense alteration (Parsons MT et al. Mol. Carcinog. 2015 Jul;54:513-22). Additionally, this mutation has been reported in several individuals with HNPCC (Scott RJ et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2001 Jan;68:118-127; Sjursen W et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med, 2016 Mar;4:223-31), including an individual meeting Amsterdam criteria (Parsons MT et al. Mol. Carcinog., 2015 Jul;54:513-22). This mutation has been identified in conjunction with MLH1 loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in an MMR deficient tumor, supporting pathogenicity (Shirts BH et al. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 2018 Jul;103:19-29). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, sequence variations that modify the initiation codon are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
