Genes affected
POLG (HGNC:9179): (DNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit) Mitochondrial DNA polymerase is heterotrimeric, consisting of a homodimer of accessory subunits plus a catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic subunit of mitochondrial DNA polymerase. The encoded protein contains a polyglutamine tract near its N-terminus that may be polymorphic. Defects in this gene are a cause of progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions 1 (PEOA1), sensory ataxic neuropathy dysarthria and ophthalmoparesis (SANDO), Alpers-Huttenlocher syndrome (AHS), and mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome (MNGIE). Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 13 uncertain in NM_002693.3
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr15-89325520-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 13499.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.888
PP5
Variant 15-89325519-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-89325519-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 436359.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
