Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 0 ACMG points: 0P and 0B.
The NM_006231.4(POLE):c.4738C>T(p.Arg1580Trp) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000149 in 1,613,462 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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. R1580G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

not provided Uncertain:4
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1580 of the POLE protein (p.Arg1580Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs192908615, gnomAD 0.003%). 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: 405742). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on POLE protein function. 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. -
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in a patient with breast cancer (Chen et al., 2020); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32091409) -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R1580W variant (also known as c.4738C>T), located in coding exon 37 of the POLE gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4738. The arginine at codon 1580 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
