Genes affected
PJVK (HGNC:29502): (pejvakin) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the gasdermin family, a family which is found only in vertebrates. The encoded protein is required for the proper function of auditory pathway neurons. Defects in this gene are a cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal recessive type 59 (DFNB59).

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 183 of the DFNB59 protein (p.Arg183Trp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive deafness (PMID: 16804542, 17373699, 27344577). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1297). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects DFNB59 function (PMID: 16804542). 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. -

Variant summary: PJVK c.547C>T (p.Arg183Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Gasdermin, pore forming domain of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. Three predict the variant creates a cryptic 5' donor site. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 7.1e-06 in 280146 control chromosomes. c.547C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Auditory neuropathy (example: Delmaghani_2006). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental studies that this missense change affects protein function (example: Delmaghani_2006). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 16804542).ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1297). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
