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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu288*) in the DHCR7 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DHCR7 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9634533, 10677299). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DHCR7-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
