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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 29, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1436 of the POLE protein (p.Arg1436Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs754518522, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 473660). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on POLE protein function. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -

Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 12 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalJul 29, 2021The POLE c.4307G>A (p.Arg1436Gln) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.020% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-133220130-C-T). Five of seven in silico tools predict a deleterious effect of this variant on protein function (PP3), but to our knowledge these predictions have not been confirmed by functional assays. This variant has been reported in an individual with a personal history of breast cancer diagnosed at age 48 and a family history of stomach and colon cancers (PMID: 32522261). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PP3. -
