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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 15, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val1026Cysfs*18) in the RECQL4 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in RECQL4 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12734318, 12952869). This variant is present in population databases (rs386833852, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with RAPADILINO syndrome (PMID: 18716613). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 56407). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
