Genes affected

WRN (HGNC:12791): (WRN RecQ like helicase) This gene encodes a member of the RecQ subfamily of DNA helicase proteins. The encoded nuclear protein is important in the maintenance of genome stability and plays a role in DNA repair, replication, transcription and telomere maintenance. This protein contains a N-terminal 3' to 5' exonuclease domain, an ATP-dependent helicase domain and RQC (RecQ helicase conserved region) domain in its central region, and a C-terminal HRDC (helicase RNase D C-terminal) domain and nuclear localization signal. Defects in this gene are the cause of Werner syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accelerated aging and an elevated risk for certain cancers. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 999 of the WRN protein (p.Arg999Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs761819112, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WRN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403984). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available"). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
