Genes affected
RTEL1 (HGNC:15888): (regulator of telomere elongation helicase 1) This gene encodes a DNA helicase which functions in the stability, protection and elongation of telomeres and interacts with proteins in the shelterin complex known to protect telomeres during DNA replication. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dyskeratosis congenita and Hoyerall-Hreidarsson syndrome. Read-through transcription of this gene into the neighboring downstream gene, which encodes tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 6b, generates a non-coding transcript. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 20, 2024Variant summary: RTEL1 c.431C>T (p.Thr144Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Helicase-like, DEXD box c2 type domain (IPR006554) of the encoded protein sequence. Two of three in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0027 in 245238 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0053 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 2 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 4.74 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in RTEL1 causing Dyskeratosis Congenita (Hoyeraal Hreidarsson Syndrome) phenotype (0.0011). c.431C>T has been reported in the literature in 5 individuals affected with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and 2 controls (Qiao_2018). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Dyskeratosis Congenita (Hoyeraal Hreidarsson Syndrome). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30060175). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436561). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
