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 Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 14-95096403-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr14-95096403-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 254336.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr14-95096403-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

DICER1-related tumor predisposition Pathogenic:3

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Jan 15, 2024	This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp1506*) in the DICER1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in DICER1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19556464, 21266384). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with pleuropulmonary blastoma (PMID: 24909177). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 254336). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.W1506* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.4517G>A), located in coding exon 22 of the DICER1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 4517. This changes the amino acid from a tryptophan to a stop codon within coding exon 22. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
