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.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingQuest Diagnostics Nichols Institute San Juan CapistranoJun 03, 2023In the published literature, this variant has been reported in a cohort of ancestrally diverse, healthy individuals (PMID: 24728327 (2014)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.0004 (10/24962 chromosomes in African/African American subpopulation (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. Analysis of this variant using bioinformatics tools for the prediction of the effect of amino acid changes on protein structure and function yielded predictions that this variant is benign. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJul 04, 2024The DICER1 c.4923T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Cys1641Trp. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.040% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD. This variant has conflicting classifications of uncertain significance and likely benign in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/133973/). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 14, 2022The p.C1641W variant (also known as c.4923T>G), located in coding exon 22 of the DICER1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 4923. The cysteine at codon 1641 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was identified in a cohort of 681 ancestrally diverse, healthy subjects (Bodian DL et al. PLoS ONE, 2014 Apr;9:e94554). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
