Genes affected
LOXHD1 (HGNC:26521): (lipoxygenase homology PLAT domains 1) This gene encodes a highly conserved protein consisting entirely of PLAT (polycystin/lipoxygenase/alpha-toxin) domains, thought to be involved in targeting proteins to the plasma membrane. Studies in mice show that this gene is expressed in the mechanosensory hair cells in the inner ear, and mutations in this gene lead to auditory defects, indicating that this gene is essential for normal hair cell function. Screening of human families segregating deafness identified a mutation in this gene which causes DFNB77, a progressive form of autosomal-recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.92).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00203 (309/152336) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.00693 (288/41588). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00627. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 146 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting

Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 77 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
