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.

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. 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 not expected to disrupt DICER1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 477045). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DICER1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 494 of the DICER1 protein (p.Met494Thr). -

The p.M494T variant (also known as c.1481T>C), located in coding exon 8 of the DICER1 gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 1481. The methionine at codon 494 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is highly 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. -
