Ambry Genetics | RCV001012431 | SCV001172878 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2019-11-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Q539H variant (also known as c.1617A>T), located in coding exon 13 of the POT1 gene, results from an A to T substitution at nucleotide position 1617. The glutamine at codon 539 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. 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. |
Invitae | RCV001037854 | SCV001201286 | uncertain significance | Tumor predisposition syndrome 3 | 2023-10-11 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 539 of the POT1 protein (p.Gln539His). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with POT1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 819671). 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 not expected to disrupt POT1 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. |
