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

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 13, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1243*) in the POLE gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in POLE are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23230001, 25948378, 30503519). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 540742). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 28, 2018The p.Q1243* variant (also known as c.3727C>T), located in coding exon 30 of the POLE gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 3727. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 30. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, loss of function via haploinsufficiency in POLE has not been clearly established as a mechanism of disease. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
