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]

Variant summary: DYNC2H1 c.7409C>G (p.Ala2470Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 246218 control chromosomes. c.7409C>G has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with Short-rib thoracic dysplasia (Zhang_2018). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29068549). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 446600). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 2470 of the DYNC2H1 protein (p.Ala2470Gly). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with short-rib polydactyly syndrome (PMID: 29068549). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 446600). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on DYNC2H1 protein function. 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. -
