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.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.4).
• BP6: Variant 14-95124483-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr14-95124483-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 242030.Status of the report is reviewed_by_expert_panel, 3 stars.

DICER1-related tumor predisposition Uncertain:1 Benign:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 13, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Likely benign, reviewed by expert panel	curation	ClinGen DICER1 and miRNA-Processing Gene Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen	Apr 23, 2024	The NM_177438.3:c.1089C>T (p.Phe363=) variant is a synonymous (silent) variant that is not predicted to impact splicing by MaxEntScan or SpliceAI (BP4, BP7). The total allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1.0 is 0.000001368 (2/1461842 alleles) with a highest population minor allele frequency of 0.00003312 (2/60394 alleles) in a population of undisclosed ancestry (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Likely Benign for DICER1-related tumor predisposition based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BP4, BP7. (Bayesian Points: -2; VCEP specifications version 1.3.0; 04/23/2024) -

Aug 14, 2019

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
