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:1

Sep 08, 2023

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1916*) in the DICER1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 7 amino acid(s) of the DICER1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). 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: 543603). 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Q1916* variant (also known as c.5746C>T), located in coding exon 26 of the DICER1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5746. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 26. This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theDICER1 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNAdecay, and only impacts the last 7 amino acids of the protein. The exact functional effect of this alteration is unknown. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear. -
