Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM2 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_007055.4(POLR3A):c.1114G>A(p.Asp372Asn) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,613,954 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D372E) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, POLR3A
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.954
• PP5: Variant 10-78021617-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr10-78021617-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 41240.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Pathogenic=1, not_provided=1, Uncertain_significance=1}. Variant chr10-78021617-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

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. -
