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 Benign:3
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingSt. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research HospitalSep 10, 2020The c.3428T>C (p.Leu1143Pro) missense variant has a frequency of 0.0002586 (73 of 282,336 alleles) in gnomAD v2.1.1 with a maximum allele frequency of 0.002904 (72 of 24,794) in the African subpopulation (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This is greater than the expected prevalence of a DICER1 pathogenic variant (BS1, PMID: 24761742). DICER1 has a missense z-score of >3.09 which suggests that this gene has a low rate of benign missense variation and that missense variants are more likely to be damaging (PP2). However, five of seven in silico tools predict a benign effect of this variant on protein function (BP4). This variant has been reported somatically in a case of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (PMID: 29227476), but to our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with a personal or family history suggestive of DICER1 Tumor Predisposition syndrome (internal data and literature review). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BS1, BP4, PP2. -
Benign, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen DICER1 and miRNA-Processing Gene Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenMay 18, 2022The NM_177438.2:c.3428T>C variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of leucine by proline at amino acid 1143 (p.Leu1143Pro). This variant has been seen in 40 or more unrelated females without tumors through age 50 in at least one testing laboratory (BS2; GTRs: 500031, 61756). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 (non-cancer) is 0.0029 (69/23442 alleles; FAF=0.0020) in African/African-American population, which is higher than the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP threshold (>0.0003) for BS1, and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.102, which is below the threshold of 0.5, and the splice site predictors MaxEntScan and SpliceAI indicate that the variant has no impact on splicing, evidence that does not predict a damaging effect on DICER1 function (BP4). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as BENIGN for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BS2, BS1, BP4.
