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]

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 149 of the POLE protein (p.Lys149Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs374428362, gnomAD 0.008%). 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: 246430). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POLE 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. -

The c.446A>G (p.K149R) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the POLE gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 446, causing the lysine (K) at amino acid position 149 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
