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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_006231.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Jan 23, 2024	Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In-frame deletion of 1 amino acid in a non-repeat region; In silico analysis supports a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 29056344) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 12, 2024	This variant, c.5528_5530del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the POLE protein (p.Asn1843del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). 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: 240562). 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. -

The c.5528_5530delACA variant (also known as p.N1843del) is located in coding exon 40 of the POLE gene. This variant results from an in-frame ACA deletion at nucleotide positions 5528 to 5530. This results in the in-frame deletion of an asparagine at codon 1843. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
