Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP3_Moderate

The NM_002693.3(POLG):​c.3037G>T​(p.Asp1013Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000267 in 1,461,864 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 Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D1013N) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions, autosomal recessive 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsDec 11, 2020This variant was determined to be of uncertain significance according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868]. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 06, 2017A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the POLG gene. The D1013Y variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The D1013Y variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The D1013Y variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 13, 2021This sequence change replaces aspartic acid with tyrosine at codon 1013 of the POLG protein (p.Asp1013Tyr). The aspartic acid residue is moderately conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between aspartic acid and tyrosine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLG-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 432740). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). 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. -
