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 Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jul 04, 2022	For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4470). This variant is also known as 3012C>T R934X. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of DICER1-related pleuropulmonary blastoma familial tumor predisposition syndrome (PMID: 19556464, 26925222, 28323992, 30178239). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg944*) in the DICER1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DICER1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19556464, 21266384). -

The p.R944* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.2830C>T), located in coding exon 17 of the DICER1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2830. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 17. Designated as 3012C>T (R934X), this mutation was seen in a family with pleuropulmonary blastoma (Hill DA et al. Science 2009 Aug;325:965). It was identified in a patient diagnosed with pleuropulmonary blastoma at three years of age, as well as in her mother, who had bilateral ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors and papillary thyroid carcinoma (Puckett Y et al. J Pediatr Surg Case Rep 2015 Aug;3:8). This alteration was also identified in a woman with a right duplicated collecting system, simple 8 mm outer cortex, and renal cyst/s (Khan NE et al. Pediatr. Nephrol. 2018 Dec;33:2281-2288). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, this alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
