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 testingInvitaeJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2244 of the POLE protein (p.Leu2244Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs375741031, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 240616). 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 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineNov 15, 2016The p.Leu2244Phe variant in POLE has not been previously reported in individuals with colorectal cancer, but has been identified in 11/66236 of European chromos omes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs375741031). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis sug gest that this variant may not impact the protein, though this information is no t predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signific ance of the p.Leu2244Phe variant is uncertain. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalNov 11, 2021The POLE c.6730C>T (p.Leu2244Phe) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.013% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-133201508-G-A?dataset=gnomad_r2_1). Five of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4), but to our knowledge these predictions have not been confirmed by functional assays. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in in individuals with POLE-related disease, tumors exhibiting microsatellite instability (MSI-H), or tumors with a high mutational burden. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as of uncertain significance based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BP4. -
