GeneDx RCV000579250 SCV000680672 uncertain significance not provided 2023-08-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Reported previously in an individual with dementia, muscle weakness, easy fatigability, ophthalmoparesis, myopathy, mitochondrial changes, abnormal muscle histology, and abnormal electromyogram/nerve conduction velocity; this individual was also heterozygous for another variant in POLG, although the phase of these variants was not reported (Tang et al., 2011).; Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation as the last 26 amino acids are lost, although loss-of-function variants have not been reported downstream of this position in the protein; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32347949, 34426522, 21880868)
Wong Mito Lab, Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine RCV000758431 SCV000887135 pathogenic Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy 2018-10-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The NM_002693.2:c.3640C>T (NP_002684.1:p.Gln1214Ter) [GRCH38: NC_000015.10:g.89317379G>A] variant in POLG gene is interpretated to be a Pathogenic based on ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868). This variant meets the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. PVS1:This variant is a predicted null variant in POLG where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease. PM2:This variant is absent in key population databases. PM3:Detected in trans with a pathogenic variant for Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) which is a recessive disorder. PM4:This variant causes alteration in the length of expressed protein. PP1:This variant is co-segregated with Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) in multiple affected family members. PP4:Patient's phenotype or family history is highly specific for POLG. Based on the evidence criteria codes applied, the variant is suggested to be Pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000758431 SCV001506455 uncertain significance Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy 2023-05-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 488798). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PMID: 21880868). This variant is present in population databases (rs781256643, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1214*) in the POLG gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 26 amino acid(s) of the POLG protein.
