The recorded framework is ClinGen MLH1 VCEP v2.0.0. The criteria and strengths shown below come from the saved assessment; this page does not recalculate the classification.
The applied criteria and their strengths are shown as assessed under the stated framework.
This variant is extremely rare in population databases. In gnomAD v4.1, it is observed in 2 of 1,612,688 alleles (grpmax filtering AF = 3.65e-06), meeting the InSiGHT VCEP threshold for PM2_Supporting (AF < 0.00002, i.e., <1 in 50,000 alleles). It is absent from gnomAD v2.1 and gnomAD-Canada v1.0.
The HCI prior probability for pathogenicity is 0.0197, which meets the InSiGHT VCEP BP4_Supporting threshold for missense variants (HCI prior <0.11). SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta = 0.01). Multiple in silico predictors (REVEL 0.268, BayesDel 0.361) are consistent with a variant of uncertain significance and do not suggest a damaging effect.

OncoKB did not identify variant-specific reviewed functional evidence for this variant; gene-level curated context is available for reviewer follow-up. MLH1, a DNA mismatch repair protein, is recurrently altered by deletion and mutation in various cancer types.
This variant has not previously been reported in somatic cancers (COSMIC).
This variant does not lie in a statistically significant hotspot.

NM_000249.3:c.1655C>T (p.Thr552Ile) is a missense variant in exon 14 of MLH1 that is extremely rare in population databases, observed in 2 of 1,612,688 alleles in gnomAD v4.1 (grpmax filtering AF = 3.65e-06), meeting PM2_Supporting under the InSiGHT MLH1 VCEP v2.0.0.
In silico predictors support a benign computational profile: the MLH1-specific HCI prior probability for pathogenicity is 0.0197, meeting BP4_Supporting (threshold <0.11). SpliceAI predicts no splicing impact (max delta = 0.01). REVEL (0.268) and BayesDel (0.361) are in the indeterminate range.
This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance by three clinical laboratories (ClinVar Variation ID: 1467499) with no expert panel classification. No publications were identified that specifically report this variant.
No functional data, segregation data, tumor phenotype data, or de novo observations are available for this variant. Multiple criteria (PS3, PP1, PP4, PS2, BS3, BS4, BS2, BP5) could not be assessed due to absence of evidence.
Under the InSiGHT MLH1 VCEP v2.0.0 combining rules, one pathogenic supporting criterion (PM2_Supporting) and one benign supporting criterion (BP4_Supporting) with no other criteria met results in classification as Uncertain Significance — conflicting or insufficient evidence to classify.
