Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2PP3PP5
The NM_001425117.1(DHCR7):c.-155C>T variant causes a 5 prime UTR premature start codon gain change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000335 in 1,613,950 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars).

Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome Pathogenic:2Uncertain:1
- -
This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 31 of the DHCR7 protein (p.Arg31Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs367585401, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with nephropathy and/or Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (PMID: 22438180, 28349652, 30586318). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 281489). 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 with a positive predictive value of 95%. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Reported in the literature as a heterozygous variant in two patients with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome and another identified variant in the DHCR7 gene (phase unknown) (Nowaczyk et al., 2012; Eroglu et al., 2017); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22438180, 30586318, 28349652) -

Variant summary: DHCR7 c.91C>T (p.Arg31Cys) 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 2e-05 in 251494 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.91C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome and Nephropathy (example: Nowaczyk_2012 and Groopman_2019). 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: 28349652, 30586318, 22438180). Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=2) and likely pathogenic (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
