Genes affected
POLE (HGNC:9177): (DNA polymerase epsilon, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase epsilon. The enzyme is involved in DNA repair and chromosomal DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with colorectal cancer 12 and facial dysmorphism, immunodeficiency, livedo, and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 25, 2024This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 301 of the POLE protein (p.Asp301Gly). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 29212164). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405730). 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 expected to disrupt POLE protein function with a positive 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 11, 2022The p.D301G variant (also known as c.902A>G), located in coding exon 9 of the POLE gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 902. The aspartic acid at codon 301 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration was identified in a caucasian male with MSI-L colon cancer diagnosed at age 58 and no reported history of polyps from a cohort of 1046 individuals with familal colorectal cancer (Raskin L et al. Oncotarget. 2017 Nov;8:93450-93463). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be inconclusive by in silico analyses. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
