Abstract
Inactivating germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes are diagnostic for Lynch syndrome. However, the clinical significance of missense variants is uncertain. A threshold level of compromised MLH1 expression, correlating with greater protein instability and MMR functional defect, has been identified to help classify the pathogenicity of missense variants. ©2013 AACR.Entities:
