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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a mutagenesis_site Abolishes exonuclease activity. (size 0) in uniprot entity WRN_HUMAN
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000553.6.
• PP3: No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP

This variant, c.252_266del, is a complex sequence change that results in the deletion of 6 and insertion of 1 amino acid(s) in the WRN protein (p.Glu84_Tyr89delinsAsp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 528172). 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. -
