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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 19, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1508 of the POLE protein (p.Arg1508Gly). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, 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: 473670). 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 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 11, 2024Variant summary: POLE c.4522C>G (p.Arg1508Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 247300 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.4522C>G has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with immunodeficiency (Maffucci_2016). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Colorectal Cancer. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27379089). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 473670). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 10, 2024The POLE c.4522C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg1508Gly. This variant has been reported in an individual with immunodeficiency (Maffucci et al. 2016. Pubmed ID:27379089, Supplementary table 5). Different variant at the same codon p.Arg1508His was reported in hereditary cancer predisposition as variant of unknown significance (Velázquez et al. 2020. Pubmed ID:32522261, Table S1). This variant is reported in 0.0087% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/473670/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
