The POLD1 c.931C>T (p.Arg311Cys) variant has been reported in the published literature in individuals with early onset gastric cancer (PMID: 33525650 (2021)) and endometrial cancer (PMID: 23528559 (2013)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000015 (4/274548 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
Observed in individuals with endometrial or gastric cancer (PMID: 23528559, 33525650); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29056344, 25228659, 29120461, 35620275, 33525650, 20951805, 23528559) -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 311 of the POLD1 protein (p.Arg311Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLD1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408113). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt POLD1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (internal data). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R311C variant (also known as c.931C>T), located in coding exon 7 of the POLD1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 931. The arginine at codon 311 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration was identified in the germline of a patient with endometrial cancer, tumor studies from this patient showed microsatellite instability, and structural analysis indicated that this residue flanks the Exo1 motif and is strongly predicted to affect protein function (Church DN et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 2013 Jul;22:2820-8). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
