Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP3 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_177438.3(DICER1):​c.1507G>T​(p.Glu503*) variant causes a stop gained, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. E503E) has been classified as Uncertain significance. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu503*) in the DICER1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in several individuals affected with pleuropulmonary blastoma or Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor (PMID: 19556464, 24708902, 26925222). This variant is also known as 1689G>T (E493X) in the literature. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4469). Loss-of-function variants in DICER1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19556464, 21266384). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
