Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 24P and 1B. PVS1 PS3 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong BS1_Supporting

The NM_006502.3(POLH):​c.490G>T​(p.Glu164*) variant causes a stop gained, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000118 in 1,606,424 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV001365923: Computational tools and in vitro splicing studies are consistent with pathogenicity (Tanioka 2007, Inui 2008).". Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

POLH (HGNC:9181): (DNA polymerase eta) This gene encodes a member of the Y family of specialized DNA polymerases. It copies undamaged DNA with a lower fidelity than other DNA-directed polymerases. However, it accurately replicates UV-damaged DNA; when thymine dimers are present, this polymerase inserts the complementary nucleotides in the newly synthesized DNA, thereby bypassing the lesion and suppressing the mutagenic effect of UV-induced DNA damage. This polymerase is thought to be involved in hypermutation during immunoglobulin class switch recombination. Mutations in this gene result in XPV, a variant type of xeroderma pigmentosum. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV001365923: Computational tools and in vitro splicing studies are consistent with pathogenicity (Tanioka 2007, Inui 2008).
• PP3: Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
• PP5: Variant 6-43587489-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-43587489-G-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 225444.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000124 (18/1454196) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.000429 (17/39658). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000273. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 10 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 29. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
