Genetic Variant POLG:p.Gly1051Arg (chr15-89319053-C-G) – ACMG Classification: Pathogenic (24 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 24 ACMG points: 24P and 0B. PS1_Very_StrongPM1PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_002693.3(POLG):c.3151G>C(p.Gly1051Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000372 in 1,614,150 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G1051W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

POLG (HGNC:9179): (DNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit) Mitochondrial DNA polymerase is heterotrimeric, consisting of a homodimer of accessory subunits plus a catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic subunit of mitochondrial DNA polymerase. The encoded protein contains a polyglutamine tract near its N-terminus that may be polymorphic. Defects in this gene are a cause of progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions 1 (PEOA1), sensory ataxic neuropathy dysarthria and ophthalmoparesis (SANDO), Alpers-Huttenlocher syndrome (AHS), and mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome (MNGIE). Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
