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]

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in individuals with a personal and/or family history of colorectal cancer (Esteban-Jurado et al., 2015); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25058500) -

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

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1810 of the POLE protein (p.His1810Leu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 25058500). This variant is also known as c.5473A>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405694). 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 POLE 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. -

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

The p.H1810L variant (also known as c.5429A>T), located in coding exon 40 of the POLE gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 5429. The histidine at codon 1810 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is poorly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
