Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 6P and 1B. PP4 PS4_Supporting BP4 PS2

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_177438.3:c.832C>T variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of leucine by phenylalanine at amino acid 278 (p.Leu278Phe). This variant received a total of 1 phenotype point in 1 proband, meeting DICER1 VCEP phenotype specificity scoring criteria of 1-1.5 points (PS4_Supporting; PMID:26925222). In the same individual, this variant was identified as a de novo occurrence with constitutional mosaicism (PS2; PMID:26925222). This individual was also found to have a somatic second hit in a recognized DICER1 hotspot codon on tumor sequencing, which is highly specific for DICER1-related tumor predisposition (PP4, PMID:26925222). The total allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1.0 is 0.000003799 (6/1579166 alleles) with a highest population minor allele frequency of 0.00006640 (6/90360 alleles) in the South Asian population and with multiple alleles present in the South Asian population (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). In silico tools predict no damaging impact of the variant on protein function (REVEL: 0.326); MaxEntScan and SpliceAI: no effect on splicing) (BP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Uncertain Significance for DICER1-related tumor predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: PS4_Supporting, PS2, PP4, BP4.

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.
