RCV002991389 | SCV003301898 | likely pathogenic | Dyskeratosis congenita, autosomal recessive 5; Pulmonary fibrosis and/or bone marrow failure, Telomere-related, 3 | 2022-01-27 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the effect of this variant on mRNA splicing is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with RTEL1-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant results in the deletion of part of exon 31 (c.2992+492_3068del) of the RTEL1 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in RTEL1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23453664, 23959892, 25607374). |
