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]

ENSG00000265393 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, LoF is a know mechanism of disease, No cryptic splice site detected. Exon removal results in frameshift change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 8-144513713-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr8-144513713-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 6069.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 31, 2022	This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 12 of the RECQL4 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in RECQL4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12734318, 12952869). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with RECQL4-related conditions (PMID: 12838562, 24635570, 25966250). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6069). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
