Genes affected

DYNC1H1 (HGNC:2961): (dynein cytoplasmic 1 heavy chain 1) Dyneins are a group of microtubule-activated ATPases that function as molecular motors. They are divided into two subgroups of axonemal and cytoplasmic dyneins. The cytoplasmic dyneins function in intracellular motility, including retrograde axonal transport, protein sorting, organelle movement, and spindle dynamics. Molecules of conventional cytoplasmic dynein are comprised of 2 heavy chain polypeptides and a number of intermediate and light chains.This gene encodes a member of the cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain family.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -9 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.81).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.00000619 (9/1454702) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.0000468 (4/85428). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0000159. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 8 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 9 AD gene.

This sequence change falls in intron 35 of the DYNC1H1 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the DYNC1H1 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs770870431, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DYNC1H1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 569418). 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 may create or strengthen a splice site. 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. -
