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 testingGeneDxNov 15, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in a patient with breast cancer (Chen et al., 2020); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32091409) -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 26, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1580 of the POLE protein (p.Arg1580Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs192908615, gnomAD 0.003%). 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: 405742). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on POLE protein function. 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 12, 2021The c.4738C>T (p.R1580W) alteration is located in exon 37 (coding exon 37) of the POLE gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4738, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 1580 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
