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]

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the POLE mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 44. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal recessive FILS syndrome (PMID: 30503519). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 372020). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The POLE c.2T>G variant is predicted to disrupt the translation initiation site (Start Loss). To our knowledge, this variant, c.2T>G, has not been reported in the literature. A different nucleotide change affecting the initiation codon, c.1A>T (p.Met1?), has been reported in association with IMAGE-I syndrome (Logan et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30503519). This variant is reported in 0.0065% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance or pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/372020/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
