Genes affected
POLD1 (HGNC:9175): (DNA polymerase delta 1, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the 125-kDa catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase delta. DNA polymerase delta possesses both polymerase and 3' to 5' exonuclease activity and plays a critical role in DNA replication and repair. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene, and a pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoMar 12, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the POLD1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.202G>A, in exon 2 that results in an amino acid change, p.Gly68Arg. This sequence change has been described in gnomAD with a low population frequency of 0.0019% (dbSNP rs772866918). The p.Gly68Arg change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the POLD1 protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Gly68Arg substitution. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with POLD1-related disorders. Due to the lack of sufficient evidences, the clinical significance of the p.Gly68Arg change remains unknown at this time. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 29, 2022Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on splicing; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 10 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 13, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 68 of the POLD1 protein (p.Gly68Arg). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 2, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is present in population databases (rs772866918, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLD1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 537106). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
