Genes affected
POLR3A (HGNC:30074): (RNA polymerase III subunit A) The protein encoded by this gene is the catalytic component of RNA polymerase III, which synthesizes small RNAs. The encoded protein also acts as a sensor to detect foreign DNA and trigger an innate immune response. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submittercurationBroad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and HarvardJan 24, 2024The p.Lys123del variant in POLR3A has been reported in 2 individuals with POLR3A-related disorders (PMID: 25339210, 33652360) and has been identified in 0.005% (6/113752) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs780755978). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 242502) and has been interpreted as pathogenic by GeneReviews. This variant is a deletion of 1 amino acid at position 123 and is not predicted to alter the protein reading-frame. It is unclear if this deletion will impact the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Lys123del variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM4_supporting, PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMay 25, 2022This variant, c.367_369del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the POLR3A protein (p.Lys123del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs780755978, gnomAD 0.005%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of POLR3-related conditions (PMID: 25326637, 25339210, 33652360). This variant is also known as p.Lys122del. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242502). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
