Genes affected
SLX4 (HGNC:23845): (SLX4 structure-specific endonuclease subunit) This gene encodes a protein that functions as an assembly component of multiple structure-specific endonucleases. These endonuclease complexes are required for repair of specific types of DNA lesions and critical for cellular responses to replication fork failure. Mutations in this gene were found in patients with Fanconi anemia. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ser1608*) in the SLX4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SLX4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 21240277). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLX4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 591573). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The SLX4 c.4823C>G variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Ser1608*). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature or in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. Nonsense variants in SLX4 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
