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 submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Nov 23, 2022	Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on splicing; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Dec 06, 2023	This sequence change falls in intron 15 of the POLE gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the POLE protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs148115738, gnomAD 0.002%). 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: 473480). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this variant on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -

The c.1687-3T>G intronic variant results from a T to G substitution 3 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 16 in the POLE gene. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Using the BDGP and ESEfinder splice site prediction tools, this alteration is predicted to abolish the native splice acceptor site; however, direct evidence is unavailable. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
