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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_006231.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Oct 03, 2018	This in-frame deletion of three nucleotides in POLE is denoted c.2343_2345delGGC at the cDNA level and p.Ala782del (A782del) at the protein level. The normal sequence, with the bases that are deleted in brackets, is CGGC[delGGC]CGTG. This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as a pathogenic or benign germline variant. POLE Ala782del was not observed in large population cohorts (Lek 2016). The deleted residue is located in the polymerase domain (Preston 2010). In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect. Since in-frame deletions may or may not inhibit proper protein functioning, the clinical significance of this finding remains unclear at this time and we consider POLE Ala782del to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	May 14, 2022	This variant, c.2343_2345del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the POLE protein (p.Ala782del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 422881). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
