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.

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoOct 12, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the POT1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.977T>C, in exon 12 that results in an amino acid change, p.Val326Ala. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.04% in the East Asian subpopulation (dbSNP rs75932146). The p.Val326Ala change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the POT1 protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Val326Ala substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with POT1-related disorders. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Val326Ala change remains unknown at this time. -
POT1-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 07, 2024The POT1 c.977T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Val326Ala. This variant was reported in an individual with myeloid/lymphoid neoplasm (Lim et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 34193977). This variant is reported in 0.040% 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. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 24, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32514122, 34193977) -
Tumor predisposition syndrome 3 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 21, 2024This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 326 of the POT1 protein (p.Val326Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs75932146, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of POT1-related conditions (PMID: 34193977). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 475115). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POT1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this missense change on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). 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. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJan 27, 2023This 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. -
