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.

The p.R490C variant (also known as c.1468C>T), located in coding exon 8 of the DICER1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1468. The arginine at codon 490 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. 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. -

The DICER1 c.1468C>T; p.Arg490Cys variant (rs777894117), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 242039). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.0032% (9/282736 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The arginine at codon 490 is highly conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.502). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. -
