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]

The p.Arg266Leu variant in POLE has not been previously reported in individuals with colorectal cancer, but has been identified in 4/66730 of European chromosom es by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; db SNP rs115786159). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do no t provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, th e clinical significance of the p.Arg266Leu variant is uncertain. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the POLE gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.797G>T, in exon 8 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg266Leu. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with POLE-related disorders. This sequence change has been described in four non-Finnish European individuals in the gnomAD population database (dbSNP rs115786159). The p.Arg266Leu change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the POLE protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Arg266Leu substitution. Due to insufficient evidence and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Arg266Leu change remains unknown at this time. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 266 of the POLE protein (p.Arg266Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs115786159, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405740). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POLE 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R266L variant (also known as c.797G>T), located in coding exon 8 of the POLE gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 797. The arginine at codon 266 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
