Genes affected
RTEL1 (HGNC:15888): (regulator of telomere elongation helicase 1) This gene encodes a DNA helicase which functions in the stability, protection and elongation of telomeres and interacts with proteins in the shelterin complex known to protect telomeres during DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dyskeratosis congenita and Hoyerall-Hreidarsson syndrome. Read-through transcription of this gene into the neighboring downstream gene, which encodes tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 6b, generates a non-coding transcript. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoMay 18, 2022DNA sequence analysis of the RTEL1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1031T>C, in exon 12 that results in an amino acid change, p.Met344Thr (cDNA transcript used: NM_032957.4). This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.22% in the European Finnish subpopulation (dbSNP rs143550996). The p.Met344Thr change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the RTEL1 protein that is known to be functional. The p.Met344Thr substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL). This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with RTEL1-related disorders. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Met344Thr change remains unknown at this time. -
