Variant summary: POLG c.3323A>T (p.Tyr1108Phe) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the DNA-directed DNA polymerase, family A, palm domain (IPR001098) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 6.8e-05 in 251450 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.3323A>T in individuals affected with POLG-Related Spectrum Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206475). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
The p.Y1108F variant (also known as c.3323A>T), located in coding exon 20 of the POLG gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 3323. The tyrosine at codon 1108 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1108 of the POLG protein (p.Tyr1108Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs765949668, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLG-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206475). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on POLG protein function. 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 NM_002693 exon 21 p.Tyr1108Phe (c.3323A>T): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 16/33582 Latino alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs765949668). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:206475). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
