Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_006231.4(POLE):c.3818G>A(p.Arg1273Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000155 in 1,612,042 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. R1273L) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1273 of the POLE protein (p.Arg1273Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs377324348, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with uterine cancer and melanoma (PMID: 3432686). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 571748). 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. -
In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 34326862, 29641532) -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R1273Q variant (also known as c.3818G>A), located in coding exon 31 of the POLE gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3818. The arginine at codon 1273 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well 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. -
