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

RECQL4-related condition Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesDec 06, 2023The RECQL4 c.1109G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg370His. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. 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 testingInvitaeOct 14, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 370 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Arg370His). This variant is present in population databases (rs377494266, gnomAD 0.02%). 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: 407034). 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. 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. -
