Genes affected

DYNC2H1 (HGNC:2962): (dynein cytoplasmic 2 heavy chain 1) This gene encodes a large cytoplasmic dynein protein that is involved in retrograde transport in the cilium and has a role in intraflagellar transport, a process required for ciliary/flagellar assembly. Mutations in this gene cause a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions related to altered primary cilium function and often involve polydactyly, abnormal skeletogenesis, and polycystic kidneys. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 11-103133640-A-AT is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-103133640-A-AT is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 446679.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Ala681Cysfs*3) in the DYNC2H1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DYNC2H1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23339108, 32753734, 33755199). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (PMID: 29068549). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 446679). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 3 Pathogenic:1

Jun 22, 2023

Neuberg Centre For Genomic Medicine, NCGM

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The observed frameshift variant c.2040dup(p.Ala681CysfsTer3) in DYNC2H1 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is absent in gnomAD Exomes. It has been submitted to ClinVar as Pathogenic/ Likely Pathogenic. However, no details are available for independent assessment. This variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Alanine 681, changes this amino acid to Cysteine residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 3 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Ala681CysfsTer3. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. Loss of function variants have been previously reported to be disease causing (Vig A, et al., 2020). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
