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]

The POLE c.6004+11A>G variant was not identified in the literature. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs201591857) as "With Likely benign allele", ClinVar (classified as likely benign by Counsyl and GeneDx), Clinvitae, and LOVD 3.0 (1x probably does not affect function). The variant was identified in control databases in 178 of 267654 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.001 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). It was observed in the following populations: African in 2 of 23996 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), Other in 8 of 6250 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), Latino in 2 of 34004 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European in 162 of 121032 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), Finnish in 4 of 25162 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002); it was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, or South Asian populations. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -
