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]

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 623 of the MYO7A protein (p.Arg623Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs111033416, gnomAD 0.02%), including at least one homozygous and/or hemizygous individual. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MYO7A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 848327). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on MYO7A protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The MYO7A c.1868G>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg623Leu. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.027% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD v2.1.1, including 51 heterozygotes in gnomAD v4.0.0. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
