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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jul 12, 2022	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 457 of the POLG protein (p.Arg457Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs372911506, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with asymmetric ataxia, depression, memory loss, epilepsy, and axonal neuropathy (PMID: 29278894). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 576988). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Wong Mito Lab, Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine	Oct 01, 2018	The NM_002693.2:c.1370G>A (NP_002684.1:p.Arg457Gln) [GRCH38: NC_000015.10:g.89327230C>T] variant in POLG gene is interpretated to be a Uncertain Significance based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant meets the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. Based on the evidence criteria codes applied, the variant is suggested to be Uncertain Significance. -
