Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 5P and 1B. PM1 PM2 PP2 BP4

The NM_177438.3(DICER1):c.1237A>C(p.Ser413Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S413G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a modified_residue Phosphoserine (size 0) in uniprot entity DICER_HUMAN
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, DICER1
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.35279107).

This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with DICER1-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 483454). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces serine with arginine at codon 413 of the DICER1 protein (p.Ser413Arg). The serine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between serine and arginine. -

The p.S413R variant (also known as c.1237A>C), located in coding exon 7 of the DICER1 gene, results from an A to C substitution at nucleotide position 1237. The serine at codon 413 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar 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. -
