Genes affected
POLG (HGNC:9179): (DNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit) Mitochondrial DNA polymerase is heterotrimeric, consisting of a homodimer of accessory subunits plus a catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic subunit of mitochondrial DNA polymerase. The encoded protein contains a polyglutamine tract near its N-terminus that may be polymorphic. Defects in this gene are a cause of progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions 1 (PEOA1), sensory ataxic neuropathy dysarthria and ophthalmoparesis (SANDO), Alpers-Huttenlocher syndrome (AHS), and mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome (MNGIE). Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsMay 02, 2023Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is uninformative in assessment of its pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). Computational tools predict that this variant is not damaging. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 22, 2024Observed in heterozygous state in two individuals with features suggestive POLG deficiency (PMID: 21880868); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: Betler2024[Review], 21880868) -

Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy Uncertain:1Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 24, 2024This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 676 of the POLG protein (p.Ala676Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs376306906, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with develomental delay, hypotonia, encephalopathy, ataxia, seizure, myoclonus, pyramidal signs, intractable seizure, spasticity (PMID: 21880868). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 451086). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POLG protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWong Mito Lab, Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of MedicineOct 01, 2018The NM_002693.2:c.2027C>T (NP_002684.1:p.Ala676Val) [GRCH38: NC_000015.10:g.89324150G>A] variant in POLG gene is interpretated to be a Likely Benign based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant meets the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. BP4:Computational evidence/predictors indicate no impact on the POLG structure, function, or protein-protein interaction. BP7:The variant is silent with non predicted splice impact. Based on the evidence criteria codes applied, the variant is suggested to be Likely Benign. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 07, 2017The p.A676V variant (also known as c.2027C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the POLG gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2027. The alanine at codon 676 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
