Genes affected
WRN (HGNC:12791): (WRN RecQ like helicase) This gene encodes a member of the RecQ subfamily of DNA helicase proteins. The encoded nuclear protein is important in the maintenance of genome stability and plays a role in DNA repair, replication, transcription and telomere maintenance. This protein contains a N-terminal 3' to 5' exonuclease domain, an ATP-dependent helicase domain and RQC (RecQ helicase conserved region) domain in its central region, and a C-terminal HRDC (helicase RNase D C-terminal) domain and nuclear localization signal. Defects in this gene are the cause of Werner syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accelerated aging and an elevated risk for certain cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 18, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys168Alafs*10) in the WRN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in WRN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16673358). This variant is present in population databases (rs776785728, gnomAD 0.09%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Werner syndrome (PMID: 9225981, 18810497). This variant is also known as c.733_734delAA. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403979). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
