Genes affected
POT1 (HGNC:17284): (protection of telomeres 1) This gene is a member of the telombin family and encodes a nuclear protein involved in telomere maintenance. Specifically, this protein functions as a member of a multi-protein complex that binds to the TTAGGG repeats of telomeres, regulating telomere length and protecting chromosome ends from illegitimate recombination, catastrophic chromosome instability, and abnormal chromosome segregation. Increased transcriptional expression of this gene is associated with stomach carcinogenesis and its progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 13, 2024The p.K581R variant (also known as c.1742A>G), located in coding exon 14 of the POT1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1742. The lysine at codon 581 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a cohort of melanoma cases from CDKN2A/CDK4 negative melanoma-prone families (Potjer TP et al. Int J Cancer, 2019 05;144:2453-2464). This alteration was identified in 1 of 2928 melanoma cases and 0 of 3298 controls (Simonin-Wilmer I et al. J Med Genet, 2023 Jul;60:692-696). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Tumor predisposition syndrome 3 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 01, 2023This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 581 of the POT1 protein (p.Lys581Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs201023336, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 486134). 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 POT1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
