Genes affected
POLD1 (HGNC:9175): (DNA polymerase delta 1, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the 125-kDa catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase delta. DNA polymerase delta possesses both polymerase and 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and plays a critical role in DNA replication and repair. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationSema4, Sema4Dec 23, 2021- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 15, 2023The p.R331Q variant (also known as c.992G>A), located in coding exon 8 of the POLD1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 992. The arginine at codon 331 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 27, 2021Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20951805) -
Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 10 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 10, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 331 of the POLD1 protein (p.Arg331Gln). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLD1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 408013). 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 not expected to disrupt POLD1 protein function with a negative 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. -
