Genes affected

POLR2A (HGNC:9187): (RNA polymerase II subunit A) This gene encodes the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing messenger RNA in eukaryotes. The product of this gene contains a carboxy terminal domain composed of heptapeptide repeats that are essential for polymerase activity. These repeats contain serine and threonine residues that are phosphorylated in actively transcribing RNA polymerase. In addition, this subunit, in combination with several other polymerase subunits, forms the DNA binding domain of the polymerase, a groove in which the DNA template is transcribed into RNA.

POLR2A (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), POLR2A. . Trascript score misZ 9.1922 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with neurodevelopmental disorder with hypotonia and variable intellectual and behavioral abnormalities, autism, susceptibility to, 15.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.34935713).

The c.312G>T (p.M104I) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the POLR2A gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 312, causing the methionine (M) at amino acid position 104 to be replaced by an isoleucine (I). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
