Genes affected
RECQL4 (HGNC:9949): (RecQ like helicase 4) The protein encoded by this gene is a DNA helicase that belongs to the RecQ helicase family. DNA helicases unwind double-stranded DNA into single-stranded DNAs and may modulate chromosome segregation. This gene is predominantly expressed in thymus and testis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Rothmund-Thomson, RAPADILINO and Baller-Gerold syndromes. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJul 27, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the RECQL4 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.2545G>A, in exon 15 results in an amino acid change, p.Val849Met. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with RECQL4-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.071% in the African subpopulation (dbSNP rs201661055). The p.Val849Met change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the RECQL4 protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Val849Met substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD). Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Val849Met change remains unknown at this time. -

Baller-Gerold syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 01, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 849 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Val849Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs201661055, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RECQL4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239737). 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 expected to disrupt RECQL4 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -
