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]

Variant summary: POLG c.970C>A (p.Pro324Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the DNA mitochondrial polymerase, exonuclease domain (IPR041336) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.4e-05 in 250106 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.970C>A in individuals affected with POLG-Related Spectrum Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS(n=2) and likely benign(n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
