Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome Pathogenic:8Other:1
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 410 of the DHCR7 protein (p.Gly410Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs80338862, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (PMID: 9653161, 12818773, 15896653). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21272). 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 expected to disrupt DHCR7 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects DHCR7 function (PMID: 9653161). This variant disrupts the p.Gly410 amino acid residue in DHCR7. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with DHCR7-related conditions (PMID: 10677299), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: The DHCR7 c.1228G>A (p.Gly410Ser) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide, resulting in a missense substitution. 4/4 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant (SNPsandGO not captured due to low reliability index). This variant was found in the large control database ExAC at a frequency of 0.000043 (5/116304 control chromosomes), which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic DHCR7 variant (0.0043301). In the literature, the variant has been identified in several patients with SLOS in compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic/likely pathogenic mutations as well as in homozygous state (e.g., Kolejakova_Gen Physiol Biophys_2009; Kalb_Clin Genet_2012). Cell-based functional studies have been performed that revealed a severe reduction in protein expression and enzyme activity due to the variant (Fitzky_PNAS_1998; Shim_BBRC_2004). The variant also lies at one of the transmembrane regions of the protein, where many known pathogenic mutations are located (Fitzky_PNAS_1998). In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases have classified this variant as pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is classified as pathogenic. -

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (MIM#270400). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Exceptionally mild and severe cases have been reported, with intra and interfamilial variable expressivity (PMID: 35305950). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from glycine to serine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (v2 & v3: 22 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2 & v3: 2 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated ERG4_ERG24 domain (DECIPHER). (I) 0801 - This variant has very strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. It has been identified in individuals with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (PMID: 23042628) and it is regarded as likely pathogenic or pathogenic by multiple diagnostic laboratories in ClinVar. (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Expression studies in a human cell line found that G410S reduced DHCR7 protein expression by greater than 90% compared to wild-type (Fitzky et al., 1998); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31589614, 31840946, 31395954, 17237122, 22391996, 20301322, 27415407, 28166604, 19390132, 15952211, 22211794, 22226660, 25405082, 15013448, 9653161, 22975760, 23042628) -

Inborn genetic diseases Pathogenic:1
The c.1228G>A (p.G410S) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 7) of the DHCR7 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1228, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 410 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of 0.007% (18/246180) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.032% (11/34440) of Latino alleles. This alteration has been detected in both the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple individuals with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) (Schoner, 2020; Wojcik, 2019; Kalb, 2012; Haas, 2007; Boland, 2016; Kolejáková, 2009; Scalco, 2005; Babovic-Vuksanovic, 2005; Wassif, 2005; Shim, 2004; Yu, 2000; Kozak, 2000; Fitzky,1998). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In two separate functional studies, this alteration was shown to reduce DHCR7 protein expression and enzymatic activity (Fitzky, 1998; Shim, 2004). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -
