Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PP3_Moderate
The NM_006231.4(POLE):c.2038C>T(p.Arg680Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000332 in 1,598,284 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R680L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:2
Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 20951805) -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 680 of the POLE protein (p.Arg680Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs764044031, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405754). 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 expected to disrupt POLE protein function with a positive 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. -

POLE-related disorder Uncertain:1
The POLE c.2038C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg680Cys. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/405754). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
The p.R680C variant (also known as c.2038C>T), located in coding exon 19 of the POLE gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2038. The arginine at codon 680 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
