NM_177438.3:c.5626G>A

Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got -1 ACMG points: 0P and 1B. BP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_177438.2:c.5626G>A variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of glycine by arginine at amino acid 1876 (p.Gly1876Arg). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v 2.1.1 is 0.0002772 (6/21648 alleles) in the European (Finnish) population followed by 0.00002891 (1/34592 alleles) in the Latino/Admixed American population (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.41, which is below the threshold of 0.5, and the splice site predictors MaxEntScan and SpliceAI indicate that the variant has no impact on splicing, evidence that does not predict a damaging effect on DICER1 function (BP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Uncertain for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BP4. (Bayesian Points: -1; VCEP specifications version 1.1.0; 02/03/2023). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA7330608/MONDO:0017288/024

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.

The NM_177438.2:c.5626G>A variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of glycine by arginine at amino acid 1876 (p.Gly1876Arg). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v 2.1.1 is 0.0002772 (6/21648 alleles) in the European (Finnish) population followed by 0.00002891 (1/34592 alleles) in the Latino/Admixed American population (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.41, which is below the threshold of 0.5, and the splice site predictors MaxEntScan and SpliceAI indicate that the variant has no impact on splicing, evidence that does not predict a damaging effect on DICER1 function (BP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Uncertain for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BP4.

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.G1876R variant (also known as c.5626G>A), located in coding exon 26 of the DICER1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5626. The glycine at codon 1876 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
