摘要
Diseases related to DNA polymerase gamma dysfunction comprise of heterogeneous clinical presentations with variable severity and age of onset. Molecular screening for the common POLG variants: p.Ala467Thr, p.Trp748Ser, p.Gly848Ser, and p.Tre251Ile has been conducted in a large population cohort (n = 3123) and in a clinically heterogeneous group of 1289 patients. Recessive pathogenic variants, including six novel ones were revealed in 22/26 patients. Infantile Alpers-Huttenlocher syndrome and adulthood ataxia spectrum were the most common found in our group. Distinct molecular profile identified in the Polish patients with significant predominance of p.Trp748Ser variant (50% of mutant alleles) reflected strikingly low population frequency of the three remaining variants and slightly higher p.Trp748Ser allele frequency in the general Polish population as compared to the non-Finish European population.
