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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineDec 04, 2018The p.Thr528Met variant in POLE has not been previously reported in individuals with colorectal cancer but has been identified in 0.02% (30/128702) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has also been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (Variation ID 24 0397). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that thi s variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enou gh to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Th r528Met variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PP3. -
not provided Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 01, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 528 of the POLE protein (p.Thr528Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs116263919, gnomAD 0.02%). 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: 240397). 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 09, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29338689) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesSep 28, 2019The POLE c.1583C>T; p.Thr528Met variant (rs116263919), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 240397). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.01% (34/282088 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The threonine at codon 528 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 27, 2015The p.T528M variant (also known as c.1583C>T), located in coding exon 15 of the POLE gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1583. The threonine at codon 528 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs116263919, but was absent from population-based cohorts in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP) and 1000 Genomes Project databases. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of p.T528M remains unclear. -
