Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PS1_ModeratePS3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_002693.3(POLG):​c.2209G>C​(p.Gly737Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00162 in 1,614,068 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000887112: "Well established functional studies show a deleterious effect on POLG." PMID:25741868" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. The gene POLG is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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]
