Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PVS1PS3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001360.3(DHCR7):​c.452G>A​(p.Trp151*) variant causes a stop gained change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000711 in 1,613,916 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 (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000373920: Functional studies demonstrated an absence of protein and no enzyme activity in HEK cells transfected with the variant (Witsch-Baumgartner et al. 2000)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]
