Genes affected

DHCR7 (HGNC:2860): (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase) This gene encodes an enzyme that removes the C(7-8) double bond in the B ring of sterols and catalyzes the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol to cholesterol. This gene is ubiquitously expressed and its transmembrane protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nuclear outer membrane. Mutations in this gene cause Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS); a syndrome that is metabolically characterized by reduced serum cholesterol levels and elevated serum 7-dehydrocholesterol levels and phenotypically characterized by cognitive disability, facial dysmorphism, syndactyly of second and third toes, and holoprosencephaly in severe cases to minimal physical abnormalities and near-normal intelligence in mild cases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 469 of the DHCR7 protein (p.Arg469His). This variant is present in population databases (rs201150384, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DHCR7-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 596851). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt DHCR7 protein function. 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. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Variant summary: DHCR7 c.1406G>A (p.Arg469His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.3e-05 in 246550 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.001 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in DHCR7 causing Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (9.3e-05 vs 0.0043), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1406G>A has been reported in the literature in atleast one individual affected with Autism spectrum disorder without evidence for causality (Saskin_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
