Genes affected
POLE (HGNC:9177): (DNA polymerase epsilon, catalytic subunit) This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase epsilon. The enzyme is involved in DNA repair and chromosomal DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with colorectal cancer 12 and facial dysmorphism, immunodeficiency, livedo, and short stature. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Submissions by phenotype

POLE-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesNov 17, 2023The POLE c.1499T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu500Pro. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.033% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-133249400-A-G). It is interpreted as uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/473463/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 09, 2024This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 500 of the POLE protein (p.Leu500Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs775457973, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 473463). 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 POLE protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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 GeneticsNov 09, 2021The p.L500P variant (also known as c.1499T>C), located in coding exon 15 of the POLE gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 1499. The leucine at codon 500 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. 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. -
