Genes affected
USB1 (HGNC:25792): (U6 snRNA biogenesis phosphodiesterase 1) This gene encodes a protein with several conserved domains, however, its exact function is not known. Mutations in this gene are associated with poikiloderma with neutropenia (PN), which shows phenotypic overlap with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS) caused by mutations in the RECQL4 gene. It is believed that this gene product interacts with RECQL4 protein via SMAD4 proteins, explaining the partial clinical overlap between PN and RTS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

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

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496750). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Rothmund–Thomson syndrome (PMID: 20817924). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly59Alafs*2) in the USB1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in USB1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20817924, 25044170). -
