Genes affected
POLE (HGNC:9177): (DNA polymerase epsilon, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase epsilon. The enzyme is involved in DNA repair and chromosomal DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with colorectal cancer 12 and facial dysmorphism, immunodeficiency, livedo, and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 595 of the POLE protein (p.Asn595Ser). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a personal and/or family history of cancer (PMID: 34326862). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 540799). 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 expected to disrupt POLE protein function with a positive 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.N595S variant (also known as c.1784A>G), located in coding exon 16 of the POLE gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1784. The asparagine at codon 595 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. 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. -
