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]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGenetic Services Laboratory, University of ChicagoJul 27, 2021DNA sequence analysis of the RECQL4 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1160G>T, in exon 6 results in an amino acid change, p.Gly387Val. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with RECQL4-related disorders and has also been described in the gnomAD database with a population frequency of 0.14% in the African subpopulation (dbSNP rs369815468). The p.Gly387Val change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the RECQL4 protein that is not known to be functional. The p.Gly387Val substitution appears to be deleterious using several in-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD). Due to these contrasting evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Gly387Val change remains unknown at this time. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 03, 2023Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign in association with a RECQL4-related disorder to our knowledge, but was identified in an individual with a chondrosarcoma (Ballinger et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27498913) -
RECQL4-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 20, 2024The RECQL4 c.1160G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly387Val. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.14% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-145741246-C-A) and is interpreted as uncertain in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/406906/). 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. -
Baller-Gerold syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 02, 2023This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 387 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Gly387Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs369815468, gnomAD 0.1%). 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: 406906). 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. -
