Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000706577 SCV000835636 uncertain significance Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy 2025-02-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 664 of the POLG protein (p.Gly664Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs773073959, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POLG-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 497733). 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) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on POLG protein function. 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.
Ambry Genetics RCV002315887 SCV000848112 uncertain significance Inborn genetic diseases 2016-10-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.G664E variant (also known as c.1991G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the POLG gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1991. The glycine at codon 664 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with similar properties. This variant was not reported in population based cohorts in the following databases: Database of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (dbSNP), NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), and 1000 Genomes Project. In the ESP, this variant was not observed in 6499 samples (12998 alleles) with coverage at this position. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
GeneDx RCV000597218 SCV001824614 uncertain significance not provided 2022-11-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004732950 SCV005356590 uncertain significance POLG-related disorder 2024-05-01 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The POLG c.1991G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly664Glu. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.038% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
