<p>Genes responsible for Werner syndrome (WRN; 277700) and Bloom syndrome (BLM; 210900) had been identified as homologs of Escherichia coli RecQ, which encodes a DNA helicase that unwinds double-stranded DNA into single-stranded DNAs. Other eukaryotic homologs include human RECQL (600537).</p><p>Kitao et al. (1998) cloned 2 human helicase genes, RECQL4 and RECQL5 (603781). Kitao et al. (1998) found that the coding sequence of RECQL4 consists of 3,627 bases, encoding a protein with 1,208 amino acids. The RECQL4 helicase has a molecular mass of 133 kD and is as large as the WRN and BLM helicases. Both RECQL4 and RECQL5 have helicase domains that contain 7 consensus motifs in the middle of the molecules. Northern blot analysis detected RECQL4 expression predominantly in thymus and testis. </p><p>Using Northern blot analysis of mouse tissues, Uwangho et al.

<strong>Gene Function</strong>

<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Using antibodies to human RECQL4, Yin et al. (2004) found that the bulk of RECQL4 was present in a cytoplasmic extract of HeLa cells, in contrast to the largely nuclear BLM and WRN helicases. However, in untransformed lung fibroblasts, RECQL4 was found to be largely nuclear and was present at significantly lower total levels than in transformed HeLa cells. RECQL4 from HeLa cells was isolated as a stable complex with UBR1 (605981) and UBR2 (609134), which are ubiquitin ligases of the N-end rule pathway, Although the known role of UBR1 and UBR2 is to mediate polyubiquitylation (and subsequent degradation) of their substrates, the UBR1/2-bound RECQL4 was not ubiquitylated in vivo and was a long-lived protein in HeLa cells. Yin et al. (2004) showed that the isolated RECQL4-UBR1/2 complex had a DNA-stimulated ATPase activity but was inactive in DNA-based assays for helicases and translocases. </p><p>Schurman et al. (2009) showed that primary Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS; 268400) and RECQL4 siRNA knockdown human fibroblasts accumulated more H2O2-induced DNA strand breaks than control cells, suggesting that RECQL4 may stimulate repair of H2O2-induced DNA damage. RTS primary fibroblasts also accumulated more XRCC1 (194360) foci than control cells in response to endogenous or induced oxidative stress, and had a high basal level of endogenous formamidopyrimidines. In cells treated with H2O2, RECQL4 colocalized with APE1 (APEX1; 107748) and FEN1 (600393), key participants in base excision repair (BER). RECQL4 specifically stimulated the apurinic endonuclease activity of APE1, the DNA strand displacement activity of DNA polymerase beta (POLB; 174760), and incision of a 1- or 10-nucleotide flap DNA substrate by FEN1. Additionally, RTS cells displayed an upregulation of BER pathway genes and failed to respond like normal cells to oxidative stress. The authors proposed a model in which RECQL4 directly and indirectly regulates base excision repair capacity. </p>

<p><strong><em>Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome, Type 2</em></strong></p><p>
In a brother and sister of Mexican ancestry and a sporadic patient with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS2; 268400), Kitao et al. (1999) identified compound heterozygosity for mutations in the RECQL4 gene (603780.0001-603780.0004, respectively). In the family of Mexican ancestry, the parents were each heterozygous for 1 of the mutations, which were not found in ethnically matched controls. Kitao et al. (1999) identified RECQL4 mutations in only 3 of 7 clinically diagnosed RTS patients, suggesting genetic heterogeneity. </p><p>In 2 brothers with RTS, Lindor et al. (2000) identified compound heterozygosity for mutations in the RECQL4 gene (603780.0005 and 603780.0006). Lindor et al. (2000) pointed out that in the 3 compound heterozygous patients in whom RECQL4 had been demonstrated, 6 different mutations had been found. They compared information on the 5 human RECQ helicases identified to that time, 3 of which had been related to specific disorders: RECQL3 (also known as BLM) to Bloom syndrome; RECQL2 (also known as WRN) to Werner syndrome; and RECQL4 to RTS. </p><p>In a 19-year-old Caucasian male patient with RTS, Beghini et al. (2003) identified compound heterozygosity for mutations in the RECQL4 gene (603780.0007 and 603780.0008). </p><p>Wang et al. (2003) analyzed the RECQL4 gene in 33 RTS patients and identified 23 patients, including all 11 patients with osteosarcoma, who carried at least 1 of 19 truncating mutations (see, e.g., 603780.0002 and 603780.0005). The authors concluded that RECQL4 loss-of-function mutations occur in approximately two-thirds of RTS patients and are associated with the risk of osteosarcoma. </p><p>Simon et al. (2010) reported a 21-year-old male RTS patient who developed 4 malignant diseases and was compound heterozygous for mutations in the RECQL4 gene (603780.0015 and 603780.0016). </p><p><strong><em>RAPADILINO Syndrome</em></strong></p><p>
Among 10 Finnish families with RAPADILINO syndrome (266280), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by short stature, radial ray defects, and infantile diarrhea, but no significant cancer risk, Siitonen et al. (2003) identified 4 different mutations in the RECQL4 gene: a splice site mutation in intron 7 causing in-frame skipping of exon 7 (603780.0009), and 3 nonsense mutations. Nine of 13 patients were homozygous and another 4 heterozygous for the splice site mutation. Due to the skeletal malformations in RAPADILINO and RTS patients, as well as the high osteosarcoma risk in RTS, Siitonen et al. (2003) proposed a specific role for RECQL4 in bone development. </p><p><strong><em>Baller-Gerold Syndrome</em></strong></p><p>
Baller-Gerold syndrome (BGS; 218600) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder with radial aplasia/hypoplasia and craniosynostosis. Clinical overlap between BGS, Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS), and RAPADILINO syndrome is noticeable. Because patients with RAPADILINO syndrome and a subset of patients with RTS have RECQL4 mutations, Van Maldergem et al. (2006) reevaluated 2 previously reported BGS families and found causal mutations in the RECQL4 gene in both. In the first family, 4 affected offspring had craniosynostosis and radial defect and 1 of them developed poikiloderma. In this family, compound heterozygosity was found for an R1021W missense mutation (603780.0012) and a g.2886delT frameshift mutation of exon 9 (603780.0005). In the second family, the affected male had craniosynostosis, radial ray defect, poikiloderma, and short stature. He had a homozygous splice site mutation, IVS17-2A-C (603780.0014). The results confirmed that BGS in a subgroup of patients is due to RECQL4 mutations and belongs to a clinical spectrum that encompasses RTS and RAPADILINO syndrome. </p><p><strong><em>Reviews</em></strong></p><p>
Mohaghegh and Hickson (2001) reviewed the DNA helicase deficiencies associated with cancer predisposition and premature aging disorders. </p><p>Siitonen et al. (2009) identified homozygosity or compound heterozygosity for RECQL4 mutations in 16 (46%) of 35 Finnish patients with a suspected clinical diagnosis of RTS, RAPADILINO, or BGS. The authors reviewed all published RECQL4 mutations, noting that 64 patients with 2 mutations have been identified and that in 4 patients, only 1 deleterious mutation is known. The most common RECQL mutation is 1390+2delT (603780.0009), which is enriched in the Finnish population with all Finnish RAPADILINO patients carrying at least 1 copy of the mutation; in addition, the 1573delT mutation (603780.0005) has been found in 12 alleles, from patients with all 3 syndromes, and Q757X (603780.0002) has been found in 10 alleles, from RTS and RAPADILINO patients. Most patients with an RECQL4 mutation have RTS (63%), whereas approximately 30% have RAPADILINO, and fewer than 10% have BGS. Siitonen et al. (2009) found no clear genotype/phenotype correlations, and noted that the clinical features of patients with RECQL4 mutations can be quite variable, even between sibs who carry the same mutations; however, approximately 85% of patients have short stature and skeletal abnormalities, such as thumb, radial, and/or patellar aplasia/hypoplasia. Of the reported patients with RECQL4 mutations, 37% have developed malignancies; Siitonen et al. (2009) noted that in 6 of 7 sib pairs, both sibs developed malignancies, suggesting that genetic background has a high impact on cancer risk. </p>

<strong>Animal Model</strong>

</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Hoki et al. (2003) generated Recql4-knockout mice, which exhibited embryonic lethality at embryonic days 3.5 to 6.5. In contrast, helicase activity-inhibited mice (lacking exon 13 of Recql4) were viable, but exhibited severe growth retardation, abnormalities in several tissues, and defective proliferation of embryonic fibroblasts. Abnormalities in the Recql4-deficient mice were similar to those in RTS patients, suggesting that defects in the Recql4 gene may indeed be responsible for RTS. </p><p>Mann et al. (2005) created a viable Recql4-mutant mouse model. Mutant mice exhibited a distinctive skin abnormality, birth defects of the skeletal system, genomic instability and increased cancer susceptibility in a sensitized genetic background. Cells from Recql4-mutant mice had high frequencies of premature centromere separation and aneuploidy. The authors proposed a role for Recql4 in sister-chromatid cohesion, and suggested that chromosomal instability may be the underlying cause of cancer predisposition and birth defects in these mutant mice. </p>

<p>Kitao et al. (1999) found that a brother and sister in a family of Mexican ancestry with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS2; 268400) had the same compound heterozygous mutations. One mutation, referred to as mut-1, was a deletion of 7 bases (GGCCTGC; nucleotides 1650-1656) resulting in an early termination codon (TGA) 14 bases downstream. This mutation was transmitted from the mother of the patients. The second mutation, mut-2, was inherited from the father: a 2269C-T transition resulting in a gln757-to-ter substitution (Q757X; 603780.0002). Both mutations occurred in the helicase domain of RECQL4 and predicted truncated proteins of 60 kD and 82 kD, compared with the intact 133-kD RECQL4 helicase. </p>

<p><strong><em>Rothmund-Thomson Syndrome, Type 2</em></strong></p><p>
Lindor et al. (2000) identified a kindred in which 2 brothers with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS2; 268400) developed osteosarcomas. They were found to be compound heterozygous for mutations in the RECQL4 gene: a 1-bp deletion in exon 9 (c.1573delT, referred to as 'mut -5), resulting in a frameshift and premature termination codon , and a G-to-A transition at the 3-prime splice site in the intron-exon boundary of exon 8, resulting presumably in anomalous mRNA with a 93-bp deletion. </p><p>In a Caucasian patient with sporadic RTS, Beghini et al. (2003) identified compound heterozygosity for 2 mutations of the RECQL4 gene: the c.1573delT on one allele and a G-to-C transversion at the 3-prime splice site of exon 13 (603780.0008) on the second allele. The patient had typical congenital poikiloderma and had bone defects in the form of aplasia of both thumbs and agenesis of both patellas. There was sensorineural deafness but no cataracts. (In the abstract of the article by Beghini et al. (2003), the 1573delT mutation is referred to as c.1473delT.) </p><p>In a male patient with RTS and osteosarcoma and an unrelated female RTS patient without osteosarcoma, Wang et al. (2003) identified compound heterozygosity for a 1-bp deletion (g.2886delT) in exon 9 of the RECQL4 gene, resulting in a frameshift predicted to cause premature termination of the protein, and the Q757X mutation (603780.0002). An additional 4 RTS patients from 3 families, including 2 sibs with osteosarcoma, were compound heterozygous for g.2886delT and another mutation in RECQL4. </p><p><strong><em>Baller-Gerold Syndrome</em></strong></p><p>

To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified
our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely
accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators
review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90%
of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD
science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a
donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important
component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the
information that you need at your fingertips.
