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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

RECQL4 NM_004260.3 intron 5 c.1132-8C>A: This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.02% (13/68034) of European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-144515898-G-T?dataset=gnomad_r3). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:459304). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are limited or unavailable. Although this variant occurs in the splice region, computational prediction tools do not suggest that it alters splicing. However, further studies are needed to understand its impact. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
