Genes affected
POLR3A (HGNC:30074): (RNA polymerase III subunit A) The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic component of RNA polymerase III, which synthesizes small RNAs. The encoded protein also acts as a sensor to detect foreign DNA and trigger an innate immune response. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 372 of the POLR3A protein (p.Asp372Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs267608673, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with POLR3A-related conditions (PMID: 21855841, 28459997). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 41240). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POLR3A protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
