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]

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Jan 27, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.2644G>A (p.A882T) alteration is located in exon 15 (coding exon 15) of the RECQL4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2644, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 882 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Baller-Gerold syndrome Uncertain:1
Oct 06, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 882 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Ala882Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs771434161, gnomAD 0.008%). 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: 406980). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
