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 CapistranoAug 16, 2023In the published literature, this variant has been reported as a germline and somatic variant in Wilms Tumor (PMID: 25670082 (2015), 28825729 (2017)). The frequency of this variant in the general population, 0.000062 (8/129108 chromosomes (Genome Aggregation Database, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)), is uninformative in the assessment of its pathogenicity. 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 damaging. Based on the available information, we are unable to determine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 24, 2022The p.R1368C variant (also known as c.4102C>T), located in coding exon 21 of the DICER1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4102. The arginine at codon 1368 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was reported in 1/77 favorable histology Wilms tumors; the tumor sample did not show loss of heterozygozity (Walz AL et al. Cancer Cell. 2015 Feb;27:286-97). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
