NM_006231.4:c.6727G>T
Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2BP4_Strong
The NM_006231.4(POLE):c.6727G>T(p.Ala2243Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000031 in 1,613,908 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A2243T) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided    Uncertain:1 
This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2243 of the POLE protein (p.Ala2243Ser). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome    Uncertain:1 
The p.A2243S variant (also known as c.6727G>T), located in coding exon 48 of the POLE gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 6727. The alanine at codon 2243 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. 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. -
