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]

Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 12 Uncertain:4
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 02, 2022This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 355 of the POLE protein (p.Lys355Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs141396559, gnomAD 0.05%). 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: 240374). 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. 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 testingBaylor GeneticsMar 25, 2024- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingDivision of Medical Genetics, University of WashingtonMay 05, 2020To our knowledge, this sequence variant has not been previously reported in the literature. This variant has an overall allele frequency of 0.00005 in the Broad Institute gnomAD Browser (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/), and is more common in populations of African ancestry. This variant is in the exonuclease domain of the protein where other pathogenic sequence variants have been found. In silico analyses indicate that this variant may not alter protein structure/function. Thus, it is unknown at this time whether this variant increases cancer risk. BP4; PM1 -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalMar 15, 2024The POLE c.1064A>G (p.Lys355Arg) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.05% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 23, 2024This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
