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]

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

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

POLE-related disorder Uncertain:1
Sep 16, 2024
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The POLE c.2089C>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro697Ala. This variant has been reported at least once within a cohort of adolescent and young adults with a history of colon cancer (Table S3, Tricoli et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29194591). This variant has also been reported in an individual with neurofibromatosis type 1, who also had a variant of uncertain significance in CHEK2 (Li et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29879026). Of note, the patient inherited the c.2089C>G variant from his unaffected father (Li et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29879026). This variant has also been reported in individuals with breast cancer (Table S4, Bhai et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34326862). This variant is reported in 0.16% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar, ranging from benign to a variant of uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/240421/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 12 Benign:1
Feb 08, 2018
University of Washington Department of Laboratory Medicine, University of Washington
Significance: Benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The POLE p.697A variant was seen as homozygous in an unaffected adult with no personal history of colon cancer, polyposis, or other POLE-related disease, indicating that this variant is benign. -
