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.

This sequence change falls in intron 19 of the DICER1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DICER1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs769621823, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DICER1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 580869). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
