Genes affected
WRN (HGNC:12791): (WRN RecQ like helicase) This gene encodes a member of the RecQ subfamily of DNA helicase proteins. The encoded nuclear protein is important in the maintenance of genome stability and plays a role in DNA repair, replication, transcription and telomere maintenance. This protein contains a N-terminal 3' to 5' exonuclease domain, an ATP-dependent helicase domain and RQC (RecQ helicase conserved region) domain in its central region, and a C-terminal HRDC (helicase RNase D C-terminal) domain and nuclear localization signal. Defects in this gene are the cause of Werner syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accelerated aging and an elevated risk for certain cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJul 11, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Leu702Tyrfs*29) in the WRN gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in WRN are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 16673358). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Werner syndrome (PMID: 15888165). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as 2334delAC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458404). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 08, 2024Variant summary: WRN c.2103_2104delAC (p.Leu702TyrfsX29) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251364 control chromosomes. c.2103_2104delAC has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Werner Syndrome (Muller_2005, etc). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 15888165). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 458404). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
