GIPC3

protein-coding

GIPC PDZ domain containing family member 3, the group of PDZ domain containing

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the GIPC family. Studies in mice suggest that this gene is required for postnatal maturation of the hair bundle and long-term survival of hair cells and spiral ganglion in the ear. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

The GIPC3 gene has been associated with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss using the ClinGen Clinical Validity Framework as of 10/18/2016. This association was made using case-level data only. At least 9 variants (missense, nonsense, frameshift) have been reported in humans. GIPC3 was first associated with this disease in humans as early as 2011 (Charizopoulou et al.). Association is seen in at least 9 probands in 2 publications (21326233, 21660509). Variants in this gene segregated with disease in 36 additional family members. This gene-disease association is supported by a mouse model and rescue, and relevant functional evidence. In summary, GIPC3 is definitively associated with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss. This classification was approved by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Working Group on 8/22/2017.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_133261.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

FUNCTION: Required for postnatal maturation of the hair bundle and long-term survival of hair cells and spiral ganglion. {ECO:0000250}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Deafness, autosomal recessive, 15 (DFNB15) [MIM:601869]: A form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss with prelingual onset. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21326233, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21660509}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
