Genes affected

MYO7A (HGNC:7606): (myosin VIIA) This gene is a member of the myosin gene family. Myosins are mechanochemical proteins characterized by the presence of a motor domain, an actin-binding domain, a neck domain that interacts with other proteins, and a tail domain that serves as an anchor. This gene encodes an unconventional myosin with a very short tail. Defects in this gene are associated with the mouse shaker-1 phenotype and the human Usher syndrome 1B which are characterized by deafness, reduced vestibular function, and (in human) retinal degeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

p.Gly229Gly in exon 7 of MYO7A: This variant is not expected to have clinical si gnificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located ne ar a splice junction. This variant has been identified in 0.05% (64/126624) Euro pean chromosomes and 0.07% (25/34418) Latino chromosomes and by the Genome Aggr egation Database; however, data did not pass quality standards (gnomAD, http://g nomad.broadinstitute.org; rs371142158). -
