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]

Variant summary: The POLD1 c.1173C>T (p.Asp391Asp) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. Mutation Taster predicts a polymorphism outcome for this variant. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. This variant was found in 999/121398 control chromosomes (42 homozygotes), predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0874495 (910/10406). This frequency is about 6156 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic POLD1 variant (0.0000142), suggesting this is a common benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of African origin. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications. Taken together, this variant is classified as Benign. -

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

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

The synonymous variant NM_001308632.1(POLD1):c.1173C>T (p.Asp391=) has been reported to ClinVar as Benign with a status of (2 stars) criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (Variation ID 380706 as of 2025-01-02). The variant is observed in one or more well-documented healthy adults. All background in 1kG, indicating it is a common benign variant. The p.Asp391= variant is not predicted to disrupt an existing splice site. The p.Asp391= variant results in a substitution of a base that is not predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Benign -

The POLD1 p.Asp391= variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs2230244) “With Benign allele”, ClinVar (classified benign by GeneDx, Invitae, Ambry Genetics and Quest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan Capistrano), and in control databases in 2422 (97 homozygous) of 277198 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.009 increasing the likelihood this could be a low frequency benign variant (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). Breakdown of the observations by population include African in 2125 (97 homozygous) of 24026 chromosomes (freq: 0.09), Other in 25 of 6466 chromosomes (freq: 0.004), Latino in 230 of 34420 chromosomes (freq: 0.007), European Non-Finnish in 39 of 126692 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), Ashkenazi Jewish in 1 of 10152 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), European Finnish in 1 of 25792 chromosomes (freq: 0.00004), and South Asian in 1 of 30780 chromosomes (freq: 0.00003), while not observed in the East Asian population. The p.Asp391= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer, HumanSpliceFinder) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information this variant meets our laboratory's criteria to be classified as benign. -
