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]

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1476 of the POLE protein (p.Phe1476Cys). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with colorectal cancer (PMID: 35534704). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 473663). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt POLE protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: no assertion criteria provided

Collection Method: clinical testing

The POLE c.4427T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Phe1476Cys. This variant was reported in an individual with a personal history of colorectal cancer and family history of stomach cancer who also carried a likely causative variant in MSH6 (Table S3, de Oliveira et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 35534704). This variant is reported in 0.0087% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. This variant has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from likely benign to uncertain significance (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/473663/). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.F1476C variant (also known as c.4427T>G), located in coding exon 34 of the POLE gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 4427. The phenylalanine at codon 1476 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
