Genes affected
MYO15A (HGNC:7594): (myosin XVA) This gene encodes an unconventional myosin. This protein differs from other myosins in that it has a long N-terminal extension preceding the conserved motor domain. Studies in mice suggest that this protein is necessary for actin organization in the hair cells of the cochlea. Mutations in this gene have been associated with profound, congenital, neurosensory, nonsyndromal deafness. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Read-through transcripts containing an upstream gene and this gene have been identified, but they are not thought to encode a fusion protein. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: MYO15A c.6863C>T (p.Ser2288Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.5e-06 in 234646 control chromosomes. c.6863C>T has been reported in the literature in compound heterozygous individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss, including at least one case where it was reported in trans with a pathogenic variant (e.g. Wang_2021, Wonkam_2022, Wu_2022, Chen_2022, Zeng_2022, Pan_2022) . These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34974475, 34744965, 35440622, 35982127, 36568381, 35640668). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 322158). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Ser2288Leu variant in MYO15A has been identified in the compound heterozygous state in at least 8 individuals with hearing loss (Wonkam 2022 PMID: 35440622, Chen 2022 PMID: 34974475, Wu 2022 PMID: 35982127, LMM internal data), 5 of whom had a second disease causing variant in the MYO15A gene, including 4 confirmed to be in trans. This variant has also been reported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (Variation ID 322158) and has been identified in 0.005% (1/18344) East Asian chromosomes, 0.004% (1/22666) African chromosomes, and 0.004% (3/74792) African/African American chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/, v.4.0.0). This low frequency is consistent with the carrier frequency for recessive hearing loss. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM3_VeryStrong, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Supporting.
