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]

Observed in individuals with cancer undergoing multi-gene panel testing (Mandelker et al., 2017); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 33503190, 28873162, 27535533) -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The RECQL4 c.2747C>T (p.Pro916Leu) missense change is absent 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline with leucine at codon 916 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Pro916Leu). The proline residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and leucine. This variant is present in population databases (rs375049839, gnomAD 0.09%). 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: 406920). 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 expected to disrupt RECQL4 protein function with a positive 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. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The RECQL4 c.2747C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro916Leu. This variant has been reported in a patient with kidney cancer and family history of breast and kidney cancer but who also carried other variants of uncertain significance in CHEK2 and POLE (LOVD; http://www.inc.gob.ar/sither/individuals/00002309). This variant is reported in 0.092% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD is interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar (https://preview.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/406920). 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. -
