Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome Pathogenic:5
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val353Trpfs*60) in the DHCR7 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 123 amino acid(s) of the DHCR7 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs759720450, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (PMID: 11111101). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551481). This variant disrupts a region of the DHCR7 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Tyr382*) have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Variant summary: DHCR7 c.1057delG (p.Val353TrpfsX60) results in a premature termination codon and is expected to cause a truncation of the encoded protein, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. Variants downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 248962 control chromosomes. c.1057delG has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (e.g. Waterham_2000). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 11111101). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551481). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
