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

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -9 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.53).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000171 (26/152138) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.000323 (22/68028). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000218. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 13 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd4 at 26 AD,Unknown gene.
