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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 238 of the POLE protein (p.Ile238Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs536684123, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 31769227). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405711). 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.

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.

Collection Method:clinical testing

The POLE c.712A>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ile238Phe. This variant was reported in an individual with colorectal cancer (Patient 924 in Figure S2, Chang et al 2020. PubMed ID: 31769227). This variant is reported in 0.087% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD and is listed in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/405711/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
