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]

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

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 1560 of the POLE protein (p.Asp1560Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs774425403, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with breast cancer (PMID: 35534704). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 240534). 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.

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.D1560E variant (also known as c.4680C>G), located in coding exon 36 of the POLE gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 4680. The aspartic acid at codon 1560 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was observed in an individual with a personal and family history of breast cancer in a cohort of 1682 individuals who underwent multi-gene panel testing (de Oliveira JM et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2022 Jul;30:818-823). 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.
