Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_177438.3(DICER1):c.5465A>T(p.Asp1822Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D1822G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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.

DICER1-related tumor predisposition Pathogenic:3
Likely pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen DICER1 and miRNA-Processing Gene Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGenMay 18, 2022The NM_177438.2:c.5465A>T variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of aspartic acid by valine at amino acid 1822 (p.Asp1822Val). This variant received a total of 3 phenotype points across 3 unrelated probands meeting DICER1 VCEP phenotype specificity scoring criteria of 2-3.5 points (PMIDs: 26925222, 21266384) (PS4_Moderate). This variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 and v.3.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). In vitro cleavage assay in HEK293 cells showed that this variant reduces the capacity of the protein to produce 5p/3p microRNAs from a pre-miRNA, indicating that this variant impacts protein function (Wu 2018, McGill University)(PS3_Supporting). This variant resides within the RNase IIIb domain of DICER1, that is defined as a mutational hotspot and critical functional domain by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP (PMID: 31342592) (PM1_Supporting). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.954, which is above the threshold of 0.75, evidence that correlates with impact to DICER1 function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: PS4_Moderate, PM1_Supporting, PM2_supporting, PS3_Supporting, PP3.
