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:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Apr 19, 2023This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance as there is insufficient evidence to determine its impact on protein function and/or cancer risk. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalApr 22, 2021The POLE c.940T>G (p.Ser314Ala) missense change has a maximum non-founder population frequency of 0.0016% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-133252760-A-C?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). Five of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4), but to our knowledge these predictions have not been confirmed by functional assays. This variant has been reported in an individual with early-onset colorectal cancer and a strong family history of colorectal cancer and familial adenomatous polyposis (PMID: 32567205) and an individual with endometrial carcinoma (PMID: 31866764). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BP4. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 16, 2022The p.S314A variant (also known as c.940T>G), located in coding exon 10 of the POLE gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 940. The serine at codon 314 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in a patient diagnosed with early onset colon cancer and reports numerous relatives diagnosed with colon cancer and/or familial adenomatous polyposis; of note, consanguinity is present in this family, but the degree of relationship was not documented and the genetic test results for other relatives were not provided (Siraj AK et al. Mol Genet Genomic Med. 2020 08;8:e1368). This alteration has also been identified in individuals diagnosed with ovarian, endometrial, prostate, and/or pancreatic cancers (Shirts BH et al. Genet. Med. 2016 Oct;18:974-81; Siraj AK et al. Cancer Cell Int. 2019 Dec;19:334; Song H et al. J Med Genet. 2021 05;58:305-313). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 07, 2023The POLE c.940T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser314Ala. This variant was reported in an individual with endometrial carcinoma (Siraj et al 2019. PubMed ID: 31866764) and in another individual with a personal history of early onset colorectal cancer and significant family history of colorectal cancer/familial adenomatous polyposis (Fig 1 in Siraj AK et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32567205). This variant is reported in 0.23% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD and is reported with conflicting interpretations of benign to variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/224589/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
