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]

Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 10 Uncertain:1

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

Missense variants that disrupt the 3'-5' exonuclease (proof-reading) activity of the POLD1 protein, are associated with an increased risk for colonic adenomatous polyps and colon cancer (PMID: 23263490, 23447401). However loss-of-function variants, which result in an absent or severely disrupted POLD1 protein, and missense variants outside the exonuclease domain, are unlikely to be associated with polyposis or colon cancer. Without further clinical and genetic evidence, this variant has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with POLD1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 821538). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser869*) in the POLD1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -

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

The p.S869* variant (also known as c.2606C>A), located in coding exon 20 of the POLD1 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2606. This changes the amino acid from a serine to a stop codon within coding exon 20. This alteration is expected to result in protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, loss of function of POLD1 has not been established as a mechanism of disease. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
