Genes affected
POT1 (HGNC:17284): (protection of telomeres 1) This gene is a member of the telombin family and encodes a nuclear protein involved in telomere maintenance. Specifically, this protein functions as a member of a multi-protein complex that binds to the TTAGGG repeats of telomeres, regulating telomere length and protecting chromosome ends from illegitimate recombination, catastrophic chromosome instability, and abnormal chromosome segregation. Increased transcriptional expression of this gene is associated with stomach carcinogenesis and its progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

Tumor predisposition syndrome 3 Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 19, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln358Serfs*13) in the POT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in POT1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 32155570). This variant is present in population databases (rs750470470, gnomAD 0.007%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and/or colorectal cancer (PMID: 27528712, 29625052). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 541864). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalJun 24, 2021The POT1 c.1071dup (p.Gln358SerfsTer13) change causes a frameshift and the creation of a premature stop codon. This change is predicted to cause protein truncation or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay (PVS1). This variant has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.0071% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/7-124482952-G-GA). This variant has been reported in two affected siblings in a kindred with familial chronic lymphocytic leukemia (PS4_Supporting; PMID: 27528712). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: PVS1, PS4. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 17, 2021The c.1071dupT pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 9 of the POT1 gene, results from a duplication of T at nucleotide position 1071, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.Q358Sfs*13).This alteration has been reported in two siblings with chronic lymphyocytic leukemia (Speedy HE et al. Blood, 2016 11;128:2319-2326). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
