Genes affected
POLG (HGNC:9179): (DNA polymerase gamma, catalytic subunit) Mitochondrial DNA polymerase is heterotrimeric, consisting of a homodimer of accessory subunits plus a catalytic subunit. The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic subunit of mitochondrial DNA polymerase. The encoded protein contains a polyglutamine tract near its N-terminus that may be polymorphic. Defects in this gene are a cause of progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions 1 (PEOA1), sensory ataxic neuropathy dysarthria and ophthalmoparesis (SANDO), Alpers-Huttenlocher syndrome (AHS), and mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome (MNGIE). Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingBaylor GeneticsApr 27, 2023- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 20, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 807 of the POLG protein (p.Arg807Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs769827124, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive POLG-related disorders (PMID: 16919951, 21357833, 28471437). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 279982). 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 expected to disrupt POLG protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects POLG function (PMID: 20185557). This variant disrupts the p.Arg807 amino acid residue in POLG. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with POLG-related conditions (PMID: 14635118, 21880868, 28471437), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWong Mito Lab, Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of MedicineOct 01, 2018The NM_002693.2:c.2419C>T (NP_002684.1:p.Arg807Cys) [GRCH38: NC_000015.10:g.89322749G>A] variant in POLG gene is interpretated to be a Pathogenic based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant has been reported in PMID:16919951 ; 21550804 . This variant meets the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PS1:This variation causes same amino-acid change as an established pathogenic variant. PS3:Well established functional studies show a deleterious effect on POLG. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. PM3:Detected in trans with a pathogenic variant for Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) which is a recessive disorder. PP1:This variant is co-segregated with Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) in multiple affected family members. PP4:Patient's phenotype or family history is highly specific for POLG. Based on the evidence criteria codes applied, the variant is suggested to be Pathogenic. -
