Genes affected

DYNC1H1 (HGNC:2961): (dynein cytoplasmic 1 heavy chain 1) Dyneins are a group of microtubule-activated ATPases that function as molecular motors. They are divided into two subgroups of axonemal and cytoplasmic dyneins. The cytoplasmic dyneins function in intracellular motility, including retrograde axonal transport, protein sorting, organelle movement, and spindle dynamics. Molecules of conventional cytoplasmic dynein are comprised of 2 heavy chain polypeptides and a number of intermediate and light chains.This gene encodes a member of the cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain family.

Submissions by phenotype

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2O Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 12, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 04, 2024	This sequence change falls in intron 60 of the DYNC1H1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DYNC1H1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs201518717, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DYNC1H1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 312652). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -

Variant summary: DYNC1H1 c.11460+4G>A alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 250794 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in DYNC1H1 causing DYNC1H1-Related Disorders (4.4e-05 vs ND), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.11460+4G>A in individuals affected with DYNC1H1-Related Disorders and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as likely benign (n=3) and VUS (n=2). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
