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]
LRRC14 (HGNC:20419): (leucine rich repeat containing 14) This gene encodes a leucine-rich repeat-containing protein. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R10W variant (also known as c.28C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the RECQL4 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 28. The arginine at codon 10 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

DNA sequence analysis of the RECQL4 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.28C>T, in exon 1 that results in an amino acid change, p.Arg10Trp. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with RECQL4-related disorders. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database in one individual which corresponds to a population frequency of 0.0034% (dbSNP rs757678397). The p.Arg10Trp change affects a poorly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the RECQL4 protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Arg10Trp substitution. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Arg10Trp change remains unknown at this time.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 10 of the RECQL4 protein (p.Arg10Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs757678397, gnomAD 0.01%). 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: 566753). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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.
