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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 16 uncertain in NM_002693.3
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr15-89325610-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 619410.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP5
Variant 15-89325609-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-89325609-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 576551.
