Genes affected

DICER1 (HGNC:17098): (dicer 1, ribonuclease III) This gene encodes a protein possessing an RNA helicase motif containing a DEXH box in its amino terminus and an RNA motif in the carboxy terminus. The encoded protein functions as a ribonuclease and is required by the RNA interference and small temporal RNA (stRNA) pathways to produce the active small RNA component that represses gene expression. This protein also acts as a strong antiviral agent with activity against RNA viruses, including the Zika and SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the DICER1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 43 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 111 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.2261 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.1353 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to goiter, multinodular 1, with or without Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors, global developmental delay - lung cysts - overgrowth - Wilms tumor syndrome, DICER1-related tumor predisposition, DICER1 syndrome, pleuropulmonary blastoma.

The p.A1338G variant (also known as c.4013C>G), located in coding exon 20 of the DICER1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 4013. The alanine at codon 1338 is replaced by glycine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is conserved. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DICER1-related conditions. 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. 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 not expected to disrupt DICER1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 2123748). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1338 of the DICER1 protein (p.Ala1338Gly). -
