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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 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.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.29272103).

Significance: Uncertain significance

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -

DICER1-related tumor predisposition Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 624 of the DICER1 protein (p.Arg624Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs753746305, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DICER1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 581766). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt DICER1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Oct 03, 2024
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.R624Q variant (also known as c.1871G>A), located in coding exon 10 of the DICER1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1871. The arginine at codon 624 is replaced by glutamine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
