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]

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingDepartment of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Sinai Health System-The RECQL4 p.Met989Ile variant was not identified in the literature nor was it identified in LOVD 3.0 or Cosmic. The variant was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs200018416) and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by Invitae, EGL Genetic Diagnostics and Fulgent Genetics for Baller-Gerold syndrome, Rapadilino syndrome, Rothmund-Thomson syndrome type 2). The variant was identified in control databases in 61 of 277810 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002196 (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). The variant was observed in the following populations: European (Finnish) in 10 of 24780 chromosomes (freq: 0.000404), European (non-Finnish) in 46 of 126450 chromosomes (freq: 0.000364), Latino in 4 of 35290 chromosomes (freq: 0.000113) and African in 1 of 23912 chromosomes (freq: 0.000042), but was not observed in the Ashkenazi Jewish, East Asian, Other, or South Asian populations. The p.Met989 residue is not conserved in mammals and computational analyses (PolyPhen-2, SIFT, AlignGVGD, BLOSUM) do not suggest a high likelihood of impact to the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (SpliceSiteFinder, MaxEntScan, NNSPLICE, GeneSplicer) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time. This variant is classified as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 15, 2024This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 989 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Met989Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs200018416, gnomAD 0.04%). 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: 239751). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt RECQL4 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
