Genes affected
POT1 (HGNC:17284): (protection of telomeres 1) This gene is a member of the telombin family and encodes a nuclear protein involved in telomere maintenance. Specifically, this protein functions as a member of a multi-protein complex that binds to the TTAGGG repeats of telomeres, regulating telomere length and protecting chromosome ends from illegitimate recombination, catastrophic chromosome instability, and abnormal chromosome segregation. Increased transcriptional expression of this gene is associated with stomach carcinogenesis and its progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

POT1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Jul 16, 2024
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The POT1 c.1363A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile455Val. This variant has been reported in individuals with familial melanoma (Supplementary Table 4, Shi et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24686846; Goldstein et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36876055). This variant is reported in 0.0070% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant has been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/475039/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1

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

The p.I455V variant (also known as c.1363A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the POT1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1363. The isoleucine at codon 455 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been identified in multiple cases of familial melanoma (Shi J et al. Nat Genet, 2014 May;46:482-6; Goldstein AM et al. JAAD Int, 2023 Jun;11:43-51). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Tumor predisposition syndrome 3 Uncertain:1
Jan 21, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 455 of the POT1 protein (p.Ile455Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs776965979, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 475039). 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 POT1 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. -
