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]

The POLE p.Ser1827= variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in the Cosmic database. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs775867327) as "With Likely benign allele ", and in ClinVar (classified as likely benign by GeneDx, Invitae, Ambry Genetics). The variant was identified in control databases in 2 of 246210 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.000008 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: African in 1 of 15302 chromosomes (freq: 0.000065), European in 1 of 111684 chromosomes (freq: 0.000009), but was not observed in the Other, Latino, Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Ser1827= variant is not expected to have clinical significance because it does not result in a change of amino acid and is not located in a known consensus splice site. In addition, in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

Ambry Genetics

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
