Genes affected

POLD1 (HGNC:9175): (DNA polymerase delta 1, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the 125-kDa catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase delta. DNA polymerase delta possesses both polymerase and 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and plays a critical role in DNA replication and repair. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

Variant summary: POLD1 c.1596C>T results in a synonymous change. 5/5 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.9e-05 in 276638 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The observed variant frequency is approximately 5-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in POLD1 causing Colorectal Cancer phenotype (1.4e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.1596C>T in individuals affected with Colorectal Cancer and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three ClinVar submissions from clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cites the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
