Genes affected
DHCR7 (HGNC:2860): (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase) This gene encodes an enzyme that removes the C(7-8) double bond in the B ring of sterols and catalyzes the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol to cholesterol. This gene is ubiquitously expressed and its transmembrane protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nuclear outer membrane. Mutations in this gene cause Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS); a syndrome that is metabolically characterized by reduced serum cholesterol levels and elevated serum 7-dehydrocholesterol levels and phenotypically characterized by cognitive disability, facial dysmorphism, syndactyly of second and third toes, and holoprosencephaly in severe cases to minimal physical abnormalities and near-normal intelligence in mild cases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 02, 2022This variant is present in population databases (rs28938174, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 119 of the DHCR7 protein (p.His119Leu). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (PMID: 9683613). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt DHCR7 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6780). -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 17, 2024Variant summary: DHCR7 c.356A>T (p.His119Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 250946 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.356A>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (Waterham_1998, Witsch-Baumgartner_2001). 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 publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 9683613, 11175299). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 6780). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
