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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1181*) in the RECQL4 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 28 amino acid(s) of the RECQL4 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs765804620, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with lower grade glioma (PMID: 29625052). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406948). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. This variant disrupts the C-terminus of the RECQL4 protein. Other variant(s) that disrupt this region (p.Thr1200ArgfsX26 ) have been observed in individuals with RECQL4-related conditions (PMID: 18716613). This suggests that this may be a clinically significant region of the protein. 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. -
