Genes affected
SLX4 (HGNC:23845): (SLX4 structure-specific endonuclease subunit) This gene encodes a protein that functions as an assembly component of multiple structure-specific endonucleases. These endonuclease complexes are required for repair of specific types of DNA lesions and critical for cellular responses to replication fork failure. Mutations in this gene were found in patients with Fanconi anemia. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

This sequence change falls in intron 14 of the SLX4 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SLX4 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs754209356, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SLX4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1009142). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
