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, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoAug 09, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the RECQL4 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.2467G>A, in exon 15 that results in an amino acid change, p.Glu823Lys. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.25% in the Ashkenazi Jewish subpopulation (dbSNP rs368611522). The p.Glu823Lys change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the RECQL4 protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Glu823Lys substitution appears to be benign using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD). This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with RECQL4-related disorders. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Glu823Lys change remains unknown at this time. -
Rothmund-Thomson syndrome type 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalMay 17, 2024The RECQL4 c.2467G>A (p.Glu823Lys) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.032% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function, but to our knowledge functional studies have not been performed. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with RECQL4-associated conditions. 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. -
RECQL4-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 20, 2024The RECQL4 c.2467G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Glu823Lys. This variant was identified in a healthy individual in a study of cancer susceptibility genes (Table S1. Bodian et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24728327). This variant is reported in 0.25% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD, including one homozygote. This variant is listed in ClinVar with conflicting interpretations of uncertain, likely benign, and benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/135141/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
