Genes affected

POLH (HGNC:9181): (DNA polymerase eta) This gene encodes a member of the Y family of specialized DNA polymerases. It copies undamaged DNA with a lower fidelity than other DNA-directed polymerases. However, it accurately replicates UV-damaged DNA; when thymine dimers are present, this polymerase inserts the complementary nucleotides in the newly synthesized DNA, thereby bypassing the lesion and suppressing the mutagenic effect of UV-induced DNA damage. This polymerase is thought to be involved in hypermutation during immunoglobulin class switch recombination. Mutations in this gene result in XPV, a variant type of xeroderma pigmentosum. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

GTPBP2 (HGNC:4670): (GTP binding protein 2) GTP-binding proteins, or G proteins, constitute a superfamily capable of binding GTP or GDP. G proteins are activated by binding GTP and are inactivated by hydrolyzing GTP to GDP. This general mechanism enables G proteins to perform a wide range of biologic activities.[supplied by OMIM, Jan 2003]

Variant summary: POLH c.1078dupG (p.Asp360GlyfsX32) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic in other databases (ClinVar, HGMD). The variant was absent in 251292 control chromosomes. c.1078dupG has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Xeroderma Pigmentosum. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp360Glyfs*32) in the POLH gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in POLH are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11773631, 24130121, 25256075). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with POLH-related conditions (PMID: 10398605, 31980526). This variant is also known as +1 G at +1078. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1696282). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
