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]

Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInstitute of Human Genetics, University of GoettingenMar 03, 2021This variant was found heterozygously in a patient with chronic fatigue syndrome. The variant is absent from gnomAD and not described before. The variant is predicted to be damaging. In summary and based on ACMG criteria PM2, PP3 we classify this variant as Variant of unknown significance. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 31, 2022This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 412 of the POLG protein (p.Pro412Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs587780420, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with late onset spastic–ataxic gait and multiple lipomas (PMID: 28130605). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 129988). 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 disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects POLG function (PMID: 27987238). 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. -
POLG-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMar 26, 2024The POLG c.1235C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro412Leu. This variant was reported in an individual with spastic ataxic gait and multiple lipomas (Da Pozzo et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28130605) and an individual with bipolar disorder (Kasahara et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27987238). In vitro functional study showed that exonuclease activity of this variant was lower compared to control, while polymerase activity remained unchanged (Kasahara et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27987238). This variant is reported in 0.033% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
