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: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The POLE c.1108C>A (p.Pro370Thr) missense change has a maximum founder subpopulation frequency of 0.048% is absent in gnomAD v2.1.1 and is absent in all non-founder subpopulations (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is in the exonuclease domain but does not affect a known hotspot codon. The in silico tool REVEL is inconclusive about a pathogenic or benign effect of this variant on protein function, and to our knowledge functional studies have not been performed. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with POLE-related disease. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as 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; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26878173, Shah2022[Preprint], 20951805) -

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

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 370 of the POLE protein (p.Pro370Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs576578672, gnomAD 0.04%). 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: 423238). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Jun 18, 2023
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.P370T variant (also known as c.1108C>A), located in coding exon 12 of the POLE gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1108. The proline at codon 370 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
