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]

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v4.0.0 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Frameshift: predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic without evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000406969 /PMID: 12734318). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe850Profs*33) in the RECQL4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in RECQL4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12734318, 12952869). This variant is present in population databases (rs778141083, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (PMID: 12734318, 18716613, 27247962). This variant is also known as g.4699delGT. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 406969). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
