Population
gnomAD v2.1This variant is present in gnomAD v2.1 (AF= 3.1837e-05; MAF= 0.00318%, 1/31410 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the European (non-Finnish) population (AF= 6.4792e-05; MAF= 0.00648%, 1/15434 alleles, homozygotes = 0).
gnomAD v4.1This variant is present in gnomAD v4.1 (AF= 1.26827e-06; MAF= 0.00013%, 2/1576948 alleles, homozygotes = 0) and has highest observed frequency in the European (non-Finnish) population (AF= 1.74471e-06; MAF= 0.00017%, 2/1146320 alleles, homozygotes = 0); grpmax FAF= 2.9e-07.
ClinVar evidence
02
ClinVar
This variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (4 clinical laboratories). (ClinVarID = 483554)
Functional evidence
03
Functional
OncoKB: Unknown Oncogenic 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.
