Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM2PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_007215.4(POLG2):c.1352G>A(p.Gly451Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,692 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G451R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
POLG2 (HGNC:9180): (DNA polymerase gamma 2, accessory subunit) This gene encodes the processivity subunit of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma. The encoded protein forms a heterotrimer containing one catalytic subunit and two processivity subunits. This protein enhances DNA binding and promotes processive DNA synthesis. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal dominant progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

POLG2-Related Disorders Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 23, 2023Variant summary: POLG2 c.1352G>A (p.Gly451Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Anticodon-binding domain (IPR004154) and C-terminal domain (IPR042064) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 251208 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1352G>A has been reported in the literature in at least one heterozygous individual affected with late-onset autosomal-dominant progressive external ophthalmoplegia with a positive family history of disease (e.g., Longley_2006). These data suggest the variant may be associated with disease. Several publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant displays a severe defect in its ability to physically associate with the catalytic subunit and is thus unable to enhance processivity of the holoenzyme (e.g., Longley_2006, Chan_2009, Young_2011). Experimental studies also found that the variant displayed a dominant negative effect, leading to loss of homodimeric polymerase gamma acitivty and substantial impairment of heterodimeric activity in complex with the wild-type (Young_2015). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 19513667, 16685652, 21138766, 21555342, 26123486). No submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
