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]

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1400 of the POLE protein (p.Tyr1400His). This variant is present in population databases (rs761011442, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with melanoma (PMID: 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405738). 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. -

The POLE c.4198T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr1400His. This variant was reported in an individual with familial cancer syndrome (Bhai et al 2021. PubMed ID: 34326862, Table S4). This variant is reported in 0.0018% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Y1400H variant (also known as c.4198T>C), located in coding exon 33 of the POLE gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 4198. The tyrosine at codon 1400 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with similar 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. -
