Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 2P and 6B. PM2 BP4_Strong BP6 BP7

The NM_006231.4(POLE):​c.4809G>A​(p.Leu1603Leu) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

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]

POLE (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.47).
• BP6: Variant 12-132642649-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr12-132642649-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 405899.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=1, Uncertain_significance=1}.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.436 with no splicing effect.

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405899). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects codon 1603 of the POLE mRNA. It is a 'silent' change, meaning that it does not change the encoded amino acid sequence of the POLE protein. -

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. -
