Genes affected
OTOA (HGNC:16378): (otoancorin) The protein encoded by this gene is specifically expressed in the inner ear, and is located at the interface between the apical surface of the inner ear sensory epithelia and their overlying acellular gels. It is prposed that this protein is involved in the attachment of the inner ear acellular gels to the apical surface of the underlying nonsensory cells. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive deafness type 22 (DFNB22). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 1 of the OTOA gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in OTOA are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11972037). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
