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]

This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Werner syndrome (PMID: 8602509, 8968742, 20443122). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5445). This variant is also known as c.3724C>T. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1165*) 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). -
