Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 0 ACMG points: 1P and 1B. BP4PM1_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_177438.2:c.5515C>T variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Arginine by Tryptophan at amino acid 1839 (p.Arg1839Trp). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v3.1.2 is 0.0002094 (1/4776 alleles) in the South Asian subpopulation (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.398, 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). This variant resides within the RNase IIIb domain of DICER1, a mutational hotspot domain with critical functional as defined by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP (PM1_Supporting; PMID:31342592). Due to conflicting evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BP4, PM1_Supporting.

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.

DICER1-related tumor predisposition Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 17, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 1839 of the DICER1 protein (p.Arg1839Trp). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). 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: 479634). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. 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. -
Uncertain significance, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen DICER1 and miRNA-Processing Gene Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenApr 25, 2023The NM_177438.2:c.5515C>T variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Arginine by Tryptophan at amino acid 1839 (p.Arg1839Trp). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v3.1.2 is 0.0002094 (1/4776 alleles) in the South Asian subpopulation (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.398, 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). This variant resides within the RNase IIIb domain of DICER1, a mutational hotspot domain with critical functional as defined by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP (PM1_Supporting; PMID: 31342592). Due to conflicting evidence, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BP4, PM1_Supporting.

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 25, 2023The p.R1839W variant (also known as c.5515C>T), located in coding exon 24 of the DICER1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5515. The arginine at codon 1839 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoSep 08, 2023This variant has not been reported in individuals with DICER1-related conditions in the published literature. The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000008 (2/251372 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -
