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]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg634*) in the MYO7A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MYO7A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8900236, 25404053). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 19074810). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43164). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 9718356, 18564497, 31816670, 32467589, 37446072, 36460718, 19074810, 25575603) -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:research

A known missense variant, c.1900C>T (Tamayo ML et al., 2008; ClinVar accession ID: VCV000043164.21) in exon 16 of MYO7A gene was observed in homozygous state in proband. On segregation, the variant was observed in heterozygous state in her parents. This variant is observed in heterozygous state in 12 individuals (allele frequency: 0.000007732) in the gnomAD (v4.1.0) population database and absent in our in-house data of 3596 exomes. This variant is predicted to cause the introduction of a premature termination codon, which may either trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay or result in a truncated protein product. Clinical findings observe in proband are in concordance with deafness, autosomal recessive 2. Thus, the above-mentioned findings confirm the diagnosis of deafness, autosomal recessive 2 in proband. -
