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]

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in WRN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16673358). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with WRN-related disease. This variant is present in population databases (rs757808169, ExAC 0.006%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln582*) in the WRN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
