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]

POLE (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.23741108).

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Aug 22, 2022	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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 246326). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLE-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1697 of the POLE protein (p.Lys1697Arg). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Jan 20, 2016	This variant is denoted POLE c.5090A>G at the cDNA level, p.Lys1697Arg (K1697R) at the protein level, and results in the change of a Lysine to an Arginine (AAG>AGG). This variant has not, to our knowledge, been published in the literature as pathogenic or benign. POLE Lys1697Arg was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, suggesting it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Since Lysine and Arginine share similar properties, this is considered a conservative amino acid substitution. POLE Lys1697Arg occurs at a position that is conserved across species and is not located in a known functional domain. In silico analyses are inconsistent regarding the effect this variant may have on protein structure and function. Based on currently available evidence, it is unclear whether POLE Lys1697Arg is a pathogenic or benign variant. We consider it to be a variant of uncertain significance. -
