This variant received a total of 1 phenotype point across 1 unrelated probands/families meeting DICER1 VCEP phenotype specificity scoring criteria of 1-1.5 points (PS4_Supporting; PMIDs 26925222, ClinVar SCVs: SCV000581520.4, SCV000571419.5). The variant has been reported to segregate with disease in multiple affected family members, with 3 meioses from 1 family (PP1; ClinVar SCVs: SCV000581520.4). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.1 (non-cancer)(PM2_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: PVS1, PS4_Supporting, PP1, PM2_Supporting (Bayesian Points: 11; VCEP specifications version 1; 02/11/2022).

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 c.1880_1883delTCAA pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 10 of the DICER1 gene, results from a deletion of 4 nucleotides between positions 1880 and 1883, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon. Since frameshifts are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
