Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001360.3(DHCR7):ā€‹c.1222T>Cā€‹(p.Tyr408His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000031 in 1,611,300 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (ā˜…ā˜…). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Y408F) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
DHCR7 (HGNC:2860): (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase) This gene encodes an enzyme that removes the C(7-8) double bond in the B ring of sterols and catalyzes the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol to cholesterol. This gene is ubiquitously expressed and its transmembrane protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nuclear outer membrane. Mutations in this gene cause Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS); a syndrome that is metabolically characterized by reduced serum cholesterol levels and elevated serum 7-dehydrocholesterol levels and phenotypically characterized by cognitive disability, facial dysmorphism, syndactyly of second and third toes, and holoprosencephaly in severe cases to minimal physical abnormalities and near-normal intelligence in mild cases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCounsylJun 23, 2017- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 31, 2022This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt DHCR7 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 552616). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (PMID: 10677299, 10995508, 12818773, 15896653). This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 408 of the DHCR7 protein (p.Tyr408His). -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 06, 2023Variant summary: DHCR7 c.1222T>C (p.Tyr408His) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the 4th Cytoplasmic loop/TM domain (Witsch-Baumgartner_2000) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.1e-06 in 246792 control chromosomes. c.1222T>C has been reported in the literature as a compound heterozygous genotype in individuals affected with Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (example, PMID: 10995508, 23918729, 22438180, 33890232, 15896653, 15954111, 10677299). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
