Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM4PP3

The NM_006231.4(POLE):c.667_693delGAGTACGATGTTCCCTACCACATCCGC(p.Glu223_Arg231del) variant causes a conservative inframe deletion change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,892 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E223E) has been classified as Likely benign.

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 variant, c.667_693del, results in the deletion of 9 amino acid(s) of the POLE protein (p.Glu223_Arg231del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). 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: 540624). 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.667_693del27 variant (also known as p.E223_R231del) is located in coding exon 7 of the POLE gene. This variant results from an in-frame GAGTACGATGTTCCCTACCACATCCGC deletion at nucleotide positions 667 to 693. This results in the in-frame deletion of a 9 amino acids (EYDVPYHIR) at codons 223 to 231. This amino acid region is well conserved in available vertebrate species. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
