Ambry Genetics RCV000573358 SCV000671291 uncertain significance Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2016-06-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12px">The p.F837S variant (also known as c.2510T>C), located in coding exon 22 of the POLE gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 2510. The phenylalanine at codon 837 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs139182500. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the C allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.03% (4/13006) total alleles studied and 0.05% (4/8600) European American alleles. This amino acid position is well conserved through mammalianspecies. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be benign and tolerated by PolyPhen and SIFT in silico analyses, respectively.Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.

Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago RCV000478239 SCV002067046 uncertain significance not specified 2020-09-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing DNA sequence analysis of the POLE gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.2510T>C, in exon 22 that results in an amino acid change, p.Phe837Ser. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with POLE-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.45% in the Ashkenazi Jewish sub-population (dbSNP rs139182500). The p.Phe837Ser change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the POLE protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Phe837Ser substitution. Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Phe837Ser change remains unknown at this time.

St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital RCV001079698 SCV003928067 uncertain significance Colorectal cancer, susceptibility to, 12 2023-03-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The POLE c.2510T>C (p.Phe837Ser) missense change has a maximum founder subpopulation frequency of 0.45% and a maximum non-founder subpopulation frequency of 0.028% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). The in silico tool REVEL predicts a benign effect on protein function, but to our knowledge this prediction has not been confirmed by functional studies. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with POLE-related disease. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance.

Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System RCV001354850 SCV001549562 uncertain significance Malignant tumor of breast no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The POLE p.Phe837Ser variant was identified in 1 of 2080 proband chromosomes (frequency: 0.0005) from an individual with an unspecified cancer (Mandelker 2017). The variant was identified in dbSNP (rs139182500) as “with uncertain significance allele” and ClinVar (interpreted as "uncertain signficance" by Ambry Genetics and 2 others and "likely benign" by Invitae). The variant was identified in control databases in 72 of 277,116 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0003 (Genome Aggregation Database Feb 27, 2017). The variant was observed in the following populations: Other in 3 of 6462 chromosomes (freq: 0.0005), Latino in 10 of 34,420 chromosomes (freq: 0.0003), European in 16 of 126,680 chromosomes (freq: 0.0001), Ashkenazi Jewish in 43 of 10,150 chromosomes (freq: 0.004); it was not observed in the African, East Asian, Finnish, and South Asian populations. The p.Phe837 residue is conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM, MutationTaster) provide inconsistent predictions regarding the impact to the protein; this information is not very predictive of pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance.
