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]

The NM_002693.2:c.1789C>T (NP_002684.1:p.Arg597Trp) [GRCH38: NC_000015.10:g.89325610G>A] variant in POLG gene is interpretated to be a Pathogenic based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant meets the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PS1:This variation causes same amino-acid change as an established pathogenic variant. PS4:Prevalence of variant in affecteds statistically increased over controls. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. PM3:Detected in trans with a pathogenic variant for Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) which is a recessive disorder. PP1:This variant is co-segregated with Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) in multiple affected family members. PP2:This is a missense variant in POLG with a low rate of benign and high rate of pathogenic missense variations. PP4:Patient's phenotype or family history is highly specific for POLG. Based on the evidence criteria codes applied, the variant is suggested to be Pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 597 of the POLG protein (p.Arg597Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs139717885, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of POLG-related disorders (PMID: 19251978, 20138553, 21880868, 27538604). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 381520). 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 POLG protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.1789C>T (p.R597W) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 9) of the POLG gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1789, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 597 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). for autosomal recessive POLG-related mitochondrial disorders; however, its clinical significance for autosomal dominant POLG-related progressive external ophthalmoplegia is uncertain. Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.003% (7/250782) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.012% (2/16252) of African alleles. This variant has been identified either homozygous or with a second variant in POLG in multiple individuals with clinical features of POLG-related mitochondrial disorders (Saneto, 2010; Béreau, 2016; Bychkov, 2021; Squires, 2023). Another alteration at the same codon, c.1790G>A (p.R597Q), has been reported (Hou, 2022). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
