Genes affected
POLE (HGNC:9177): (DNA polymerase epsilon, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase epsilon. The enzyme is involved in DNA repair and chromosomal DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with colorectal cancer 12 and facial dysmorphism, immunodeficiency, livedo, and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2023 of the POLE protein (p.Thr2023Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs771628123, gnomAD 0.006%). 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: 619906). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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 NM_006231.3 exon 44 p.Thr2023Asn (c.6068C>A): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 2/33552 Latino alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs771628123). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.T2023N variant (also known as c.6068C>A), located in coding exon 44 of the POLE gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 6068. The threonine at codon 2023 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
