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]

The c.25G>A (p.E9K) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the RECQL4 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 25, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 9 to be replaced by a lysine (K). The p.E9K alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The RECQL4 c.25G>A (p.Glu9Lys) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.15% in gnomAD v2.1.1, however this data may be unreliable due to poor data quality at this location (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico tools predict a benign effect on protein function, and to our knowledge functional studies have not been performed. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in RECQL4-related disorders. In summary, the evidence currently available is insufficient to determine the clinical significance of this variant. It has therefore been classified as of uncertain significance. -

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 9 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Glu9Lys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. 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: 529004). 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. -
