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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Baylor Genetics	Jul 03, 2023	- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 02, 2024	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg225*) 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). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WRN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 404010). RNA analysis performed to evaluate the impact of this premature translational stop signal on mRNA splicing indicates it does not significantly alter splicing (Invitae). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The WRN c.673C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg225*). This variant has been reported in the heterozygous state in individuals from an breast cancer exome sequencing cohort and an exome carrier screening cohort (Table S5, Maxwell et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27153395; Table S1, Capalbo et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31589614). This variant is reported in 0.0024% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/8-30925792-C-T). Nonsense variants in WRN are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
