Genes affected

DHCR24 (HGNC:2859): (24-dehydrocholesterol reductase) This gene encodes a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent oxidoreductase which catalyzes the reduction of the delta-24 double bond of sterol intermediates during cholesterol biosynthesis. The protein contains a leader sequence that directs it to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Missense mutations in this gene have been associated with desmosterolosis. Also, reduced expression of the gene occurs in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer disease patients and overexpression has been observed in adrenal gland cancer cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: DHCR24 c.55_56insCGCC (p.Arg19ProfsX69) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. To our knowledge only a few truncations have been reported in affected individuals, with limited phenotype details (PMID 33027564, 34930662) therefore current evidence is not sufficient to clearly establish whether loss-of-function variant can cause disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.2e-06 in 240794 control chromosomes (gnomAD). However, this frequency does not allow conclusions about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.55_56insCGCC in individuals affected with Desmosterolosis and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
