General annotation (Comments)

Function

DNA-dependent ATPase. May modulate chromosome segregation.

Subunit structure

Interacts with UBR1 and UBR2.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus.

Tissue specificity

Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in thymus and testis.

Induction

Up-regulated in actively dividing cells.

Involvement in disease

Defects in RECQL4 are a cause of Rothmund-Thomson syndrome (RTS) [MIM:268400]. A disease characterized by dermatological features such as atrophy, pigmentation, and telangiectasia and frequently accompanied by juvenile cataract, saddle nose, congenital bone defects, disturbances of hair growth, and hypogonadism.

Defects in RECQL4 are a cause of RAPADILINO syndrome [MIM:266280]. A disease characterized by radial and patellar aplasia or hypoplasia.

Defects in RECQL4 are a cause of Baller-Gerold syndrome (BGS) [MIM:218600]; also known as craniosynostosis with radial defects. BGS is an autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by short stature, craniosynostosis, absent or hypoplastic radii, short and curved ulna, fused carpal bones and absent carpals, metacarpals and phalanges. Some patients manifest poikiloderma. Cases reported as Baller-Gerold syndrome have phenotypic overlap with several other disorders, including Saethre-Chotzen syndrome. BGS is part of the clinical spectrum of Rothmund-Thomson and RAPADILINO syndromes.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the helicase family. RecQ subfamily.

Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain.

Contains 1 helicase C-terminal domain.
