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]

RECQL4-related disorder Uncertain:1
Feb 25, 2023
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The RECQL4 c.2653C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Leu885Phe. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0053% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-145738332-G-A). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Baller-Gerold syndrome Uncertain:1
Dec 01, 2023
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with phenylalanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 885 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Leu885Phe). This variant is present in population databases (rs367559549, gnomAD 0.005%). 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: 528950). 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. -
