Genes affected
POLA1 (HGNC:9173): (DNA polymerase alpha 1, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase, which together with a regulatory and two primase subunits, forms the DNA polymerase alpha complex. The catalytic subunit plays an essential role in the initiation of DNA replication. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.028363967 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 7.7, offset of 9, new splice context is: tcttttttcggctctgtcAGatt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.0000359 (4/111339) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.000131 (4/30607). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000444. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 1 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 22. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
