Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer syndrome (HNPCC) is another hereditary autosomal dominant cancer syndrome which, if proven to be caused by germline mutations in mismatch repair genes (MMR)—MLHL, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, and EPCAM—is called Lynch syndrome (LS). Here, MRC1 is linked to hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer.
