Genes affected
SLX4 (HGNC:23845): (SLX4 structure-specific endonuclease subunit) This gene encodes a protein that functions as an assembly component of multiple structure-specific endonucleases. These endonuclease complexes are required for repair of specific types of DNA lesions and critical for cellular responses to replication fork failure. Mutations in this gene were found in patients with Fanconi anemia. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the SLX4 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.2210G>A, in exon 11 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg737His. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with SLX4-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.08% in African populations (dbSNP rs146901714). The p.Arg737His change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the SLX4 protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Arg737His substitution. Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Arg737His change remains unknown at this time. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 737 of the SLX4 protein (p.Arg737His). This variant is present in population databases (rs146901714, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLX4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 407912). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
