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]

Carcinoma of colon Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The POLE p.Arg52Gln variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic and MutDB databases. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs372459649) “With Uncertain significance allele”, ClinVar (with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity, submitters: likely benign by Invitae and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano and uncertain significance by GeneDx), Clinvitae (2x), and in control databases in 54 of 277204 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include Other in 1 of 6464 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), Latino in 36 of 34418 chromosomes (freq: 0.001), European Non-Finnish in 3 of 126710 chromosomes (freq: 0.00002), Ashkenazi Jewish in 2 of 10150 chromosomes (freq: 0.0002), and South Asian in 12 of 30782 chromosomes (freq: 0.0004) while not observed in the African, East Asian and European Finnish populations. The p.Arg52 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact of Gln at this position to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and 2 of 5 in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) predict a greater than 10% difference in splicing; this is not very predictive of pathogenicity. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 30, 2022This 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. -
