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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 30, 2023Variant summary: RTEL1 c.709C>T (p.Arg237Trp, also known as c.637C>T/p.Arg213Trp in NM_001283009.2) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Helicase-like, DEXD box c2 type (IPR006554) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 251486 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.709C>T has been reported in the literature in heterozygous individuals affected with pulmonary fibrosis (Kannengiesser_2015, Liu_2021). These reports 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 publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 26022962, 34298581). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal recessive 5;C4225346:Pulmonary fibrosis and/or bone marrow failure, Telomere-related, 3 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 12, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 213 of the RTEL1 protein (p.Arg213Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs560281693, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of familial pulmonary fibrosis (PMID: 26022962, 34298581). This variant is also known as p.Arg237Trp. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551637). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
