Description

The p.T82A variant (also known as c.244A>G), located in coding exon 3 of the MLH1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 244. The threonine at codon 82 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant has been identified in probands with HNPCC or HNPCC-related cancers and concordant tumors when available (Pastrello C et al. Genet Med. 2011 Feb;13(2):115-24,Hardt K et al. Fam Cancer. 2011 Jun;10(2):273-84, Borras E et al. Hum Mutat. 2012 Nov;33(11):1576-88, Simbolo M et al. Hered. Cancer Clin Pract. 2015 Aug 21;13(1), Ambry internal data). This variant is located in the ATPase functional domain and impaired MMR activity compared to wild-type (Borras E et al. Hum Mutat. 2012 Nov;33(11)). This paper also cites literature demonstrating alterations at the same codon, including p.T82K, p.T82M, and p.T82I, to be defective in MMR activity in yeast and/or human cells. This alteration has been classified as pathogenic by multifactorial analysis, which integrates the following lines of evidence to produce a quantitative likelihood of pathogenicity: in silico prediction models, segregation with disease, tumor characteristics, mutation co-occurrence, and functional assay results (Thompson B et al. Nat Genet. 2014 Feb;46(2):107-15; available at [www.insight-group.org/variants/classifications/]). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.

Description

This missense variant replaces threonine with alanine at codon 82 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that the mutant protein shows <10% of normal DNA-mismatch repair activity in vitro (PMID: 22736432, 31881334). This variant has been reported in individuals affected with Lynch syndrome (PMID: 21239990, 26300997) and in individuals affected with colorectal cancer with tumors showing microsatellite instability (PMID: 21404117, 22736432). This variant has been identified in 2/251394 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). A different missense variant occurring at the same codon, p.Thr82Ile, is known to be disease-causing, indicating the importance of threonine residue at this position for MLH1 function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
