Variant summary
Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -7 ACMG points: 0P and 7B. BP4_ModerateBS1_SupportingBS2
The NM_006231.4(POLE):c.6757G>C(p.Glu2253Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000248 in 1,610,554 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. E2253K) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not provided    Uncertain:2 
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29056344) -
This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2253 of the POLE protein (p.Glu2253Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs376140352, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 548550). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POLE 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. -
POLE Exonuclease Domain Mutation    Uncertain:1 
- -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:1 
The p.E2253Q variant (also known as c.6757G>C), located in coding exon 49 of the POLE gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 6757. The glutamic acid at codon 2253 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
