ClinGen DICER1 and miRNA-Processing Gene Variant Curation Expert Panel, ClinGen RCV000231396 SCV004032135 benign DICER1-related tumor predisposition 2023-08-22 reviewed by expert panel curation The NM_177438.2:c.1124C>G variant in DICER1 is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of Proline by Arginine at amino acid 375 (p.Pro375Arg). This variant has been seen in 40 or more unrelated females without tumors through age 50 in at least one testing laboratory (BS2; Internal lab contributors, PMIDs 29641532, 33630087). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 (non-cancer) is 0.0004911 (58/118098 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population, which is higher than the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP threshold (>0.0003) for BS1, and therefore meets this criterion (BS1). This variant does not reside within a region of the RNAse IIIb domain that is defined as a mutational hotspot or critical functional domain by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP (PM1 not met). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.578, which is neither above nor below the thresholds predicting a damaging or benign impact on DICER1 function (PP3 and BP4 not met). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for DICER1 syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen DICER1 VCEP: BS1, BS2. (Bayesian Points: -8; VCEP specifications version 1.2.0; 08/22/23).

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000231396 SCV000389766 benign DICER1-related tumor predisposition 2018-01-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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 and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease.
Ambry Genetics RCV000570796 SCV000661811 likely benign Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome 2022-01-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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.
St. Jude Molecular Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital RCV000231396 SCV000891032 likely benign DICER1-related tumor predisposition 2020-10-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The DICER1 c.1124C>G (p.Pro375Arg) missense change has a maximum subpopulation frequency of 0.05% in gnomAD v2.1.1 (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/14-95590785-G-C). This population frequency is higher than expected for DICER1-related cancer predisposition syndrome (BS1, PMID: 24761742). Although this variant occurs in a gene where missense variants are more likely to be damaging based on methods described by Lek et al. (PP2; PMID: 27535533), but in silico tools are not in agreement about the effect of this variant on protein function. This variant has been reported in an individual with papillary thyroid carcinoma whose tumor harbored a somatic DICER1 p.D1810Y variant and loss of the allele that carried the germline p.P375R variant (BP5; PMID: 29474644). This suggests that this variant is not deleterious. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in individuals with a personal or family history suggestive of DICER1 Tumor Predisposition syndrome (internal data and literature review). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign based on the ACMG/AMP criteria: BS1, BP5, PP2.

Genetic Services Laboratory, University of Chicago RCV001201043 SCV003839422 uncertain significance not specified 2022-05-09 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing DNA sequence analysis of the DICER1 gene demonstrated a sequence change, c.1124C>G, in exon 8 that results in an amino acid change, p.Pro375Arg. This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in individuals with DICER1-related disorders. This sequence change has been described in the gnomAD database with a frequency of 0.050% in the European subpopulation (dbSNP rs148758903). The p.Pro375Arg change affects a highly conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the DICER1 protein that is not known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Pro375Arg substitution. Due to insufficient evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Pro375Arg change remains unknown at this time.
