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.Gly1942*) 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 present in population databases (rs111033192, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Usher syndrome (PMID: 21873662, 22135276). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43300). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

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

The MYO7A c.5824G>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Gly1942*). This variant has been reported along with a second variant allele in MYO7A in individuals with Usher syndrome or MYO7A-related features (Jacobson et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21873662; Table S1, Lin et al. 2024. PubMed ID: 38219857; Table S1, Mansard et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34948090). This variant is reported in 0.0027% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in MYO7A are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic.

Collection Method:clinical testing

The MYO7A c.5824G>T (p.Gly1942Ter) variant is a stop-gained variant that is predicted to result in a premature termination of the protein. The p.Gly1942Ter variant has been reported in three studies in which it is found in a total of seven patients including in five in a compound heterozygous state, in one in heterozygous state, and in one allele in a study of 100 Danish patients where zygosity was not specified (Jacobson et al. 2011; Le Quesne Stabej et al. 2011; Dad et al. 2016). The p.Gly1942Ter variant was absent from 486 controls but is reported at a frequency of 0.00004 in the European (non-Finnish) population of the Exome Aggregation Consortium. This frequency is based on two alleles in a region of low sequence coverage. Based on the evidence, the p.Gly1942Ter variant is classified as likely pathogenic for MYO7A-related disorders, although notably has only been described in patients with Usher syndrome and appears to be inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. This variant was observed by ICSL as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population.
