Genetic Variant POLG:p.Pro587Leu (chr15-89325639-G-A) – ACMG Classification: Likely_benign (-1 pts)

Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points: 4P and 5B. PM1PP3PP5BP4BS2

The NM_002693.3(POLG):c.1760C>T(p.Pro587Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00199 in 1,612,514 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. P587P) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 17 uncertain in NM_002693.3

PP3

Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect 7: BayesDel_noAF, Cadd, M_CAP, phyloP100way_vertebrate, PROVEAN, REVEL, REVEL [when AlphaMissense, max_spliceai, FATHMM_MKL, MetaRNN, MutationTaster was below the threshold]

PP5

Variant 15-89325639-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-89325639-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 13505.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.090871036). . Strength limited to SUPPORTING due to the PP5.

BS2

High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 2 AR,AD gene
