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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.52).
BP6
Variant 15-89323415-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr15-89323415-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 129991.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=2.79 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0117 (1779/152330) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0137 (933/68036). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.013. There are 28 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 956 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 28 AR,AD gene
