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]

ACMG classification
Classification was made for transcript
Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage; 
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 7 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.5014 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.3826 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to desmosterolosis. 
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.971
PP5
Variant 1-54875134-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr1-54875134-C-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 4369.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
