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.

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJun 23, 2022DNA sequence analysis of the POT1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1256A>G, in exon 14 that results in an amino acid change, p.Tyr419Cys. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.0023% in the non-Finnish European subpopulation (dbSNP rs770213689). The p.Tyr419Cys change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the POT1 protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Tyr419Cys 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.Tyr419Cys change remains unknown at this time. -
Tumor predisposition syndrome 3 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 20, 2023This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 419 of the POT1 protein (p.Tyr419Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs770213689, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 574175). 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. 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 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 18, 2023The p.Y419C variant (also known as c.1256A>G), located in coding exon 10 of the POT1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1256. The tyrosine at codon 419 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration was identified in 1 of 2928 melanoma cases and 0 of 3298 controls (Simonin-Wilmer I et al. J Med Genet, 2023 Jul;60:692-696). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
