Genes affected
POLD1 (HGNC:9175): (DNA polymerase delta 1, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the 125-kDa catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase delta. DNA polymerase delta possesses both polymerase and 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and plays a critical role in DNA replication and repair. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

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; Observed in an individual with polyposis in the published literature (PMID: 32792570); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25228659, 32686686, 20951805, 36814246, 32792570) -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 352 of the POLD1 protein (p.Arg352Cys). 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 missense change has been observed in individual(s) with adenomatous polyps (PMID: 32792570). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408032). 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 not expected to disrupt POLD1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R352C variant (also known as c.1054C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the POLD1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1054. The arginine at codon 352 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been identified in 1/2813 unrelated individuals undergoing multigene panel testing for hereditary cancer (Mur P et al. Genet Med, 2020 Dec;22:2089-2100). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the POLD1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1054C>T, in exon 9 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg352Cys. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with POLD1-related disorders. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.008% in the East Asian subpopulation (dbSNP rs762330164). The p.Arg352Cys change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the POLD1 protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Arg352Cys substitution. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Arg352Cys change remains unknown at this time. -
