Genes affected
DNAH1 (HGNC:2940): (dynein axonemal heavy chain 1) This gene encodes an inner dynein arm heavy chain that provides structural support between the radial spokes and the outer doublet of the sperm tail. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia and multiple morphological anomalies of the flagella that result in asthenozoospermia and male infertility. Mice with a homozygous knockout of the orthologous gene are viable but have reduced sperm motility and are infertile. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2017]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -6 ACMG points.

PP3
Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect 7: AlphaMissense, Cadd, Dann, Eigen, FATHMM_MKL, PROVEAN, REVEL [when BayesDel_addAF, BayesDel_noAF, max_spliceai, MetaRNN, MutationTaster was below the threshold]
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.14630526).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.00133 (1946/1461354) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00166 (1841/1111758). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00159. There are 6 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 935 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 3272 of the DNAH1 protein (p.Arg3272Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs200784189, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DNAH1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569725). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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.
