This variant has been reported in PMID:11431686 . This variant meets the following evidence codes reported in the ACMG-guideline. 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. PP1:This variant is co-segregated with Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome 4A (Alpers type) in multiple affected family members. PP2:This is a missense variant in POLG with a low rate of benign and high rate of pathogenic missense variations. PP3:Computational evidence/predictors indicate the variant has deleterious effect on POLG structure, function, or protein-protein interaction. 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 Likely Pathogenic.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000626287 SCV001212784 pathogenic Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy 2023-12-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 304 of the POLG protein (p.Leu304Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918044, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive POLG-related disorders (PMID: 11431686, 16639411, 21880868, 22006280, 24288107). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13497). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt POLG protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects POLG function (PMID: 20601675, 26095671). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Institute of Medical Genetics and Genomics, Sir Ganga Ram Hospital RCV000626287 SCV002583594 likely pathogenic Progressive sclerosing poliodystrophy 2022-10-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The variant c.911 T>G (p.Leu304Arg) is present in compound heterozygous state with c.368 T>G (p.Val123Gly) in POLG gene. The four month old patient had two episodes of pneumonia and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Other clinical features observed were severe sepsis, shock, reduced IgG and increased levels of CK, Ferritin, SGOT and FGF-21. This variant has been present in 0.036% in gnomAD and 0.0074% in ExAc. The c.911 variant was observed 'in trans' with c.368 variant as both segregated separately in mother and father of the proband. This variant has been reported previously PMID: 32567010. Based on segregation studies and the clinical features, this variant is classified as Pathogenic.
Foundation for Research in Genetics and Endocrinology, FRIGE's Institute of Human Genetics RCV000014444 SCV002600899 pathogenic Progressive external ophthalmoplegia with mitochondrial DNA deletions, autosomal recessive 1 2022-10-17 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing A Hetrozygous variation in exon 4 of the POLG gene that results in the aminoacid substitution of Arginine for Leucine at codon 304 was detected.The observed variant c.911T>G (p.Leu304Arg) has not been reported in the 1000 genomes and ExAC databases. The in silico prediction of the variant are possibly damaging by PolyPhen-2 (HumDiv) and damaging by LRT and MutationTaster2. The reference codon is conserved across species.In summary, the variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003387722 SCV005362679 pathogenic POLG-related disorder 2024-03-15 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The POLG c.911T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu304Arg. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous or homozygous states in patients with a POLG-related disorder, such as Alpers-Huttenlocher syndrome, autosomal recessive progressive external ophthalmoplegia, or sensory ataxic neuropathy, dysarthria, and ophthalmoparesis (SANDO) (Spiegler et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22006280; Szczepanowska et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20601675). This variant is reported in 0.036% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
