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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 34 of the POLE protein (p.Arg34Leu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with a family history of breast cancer (PMID: 35534704). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405747). 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) has been performed 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. 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. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R34L variant (also known as c.101G>T), located in coding exon 2 of the POLE gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 101. The arginine at codon 34 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
