Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the COCH gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Disease
DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal dominant, 9 (DFNA9) [MIM:601369]: A form of non-syndromic hearing loss characterized by onset in the fourth or fifth decade of life and initially involves the high frequencies. Hearing loss is progressive and usually complete by the sixth decade. In addition to cochlear involvement, DFNA9 patients also exhibit a spectrum of vestibular dysfunctions. Penetrance of the vestibular symptoms is often incomplete, and some patients are minimally affected, whereas others suffer from severe balance disturbances and episodes of vertigo. Affected individuals have mucopolysaccharide depositions in the channels of the cochlear and vestibular nerves. These depositions apparently cause strangulation and degeneration of dendritic fibers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10400989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11295836, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12928864, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14512963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16835921, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17561763, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18312449, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22610276, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22931125, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23993205, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25388789, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9806553, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9931344}.
