Genes affected
TSPEAR (HGNC:1268): (thrombospondin type laminin G domain and EAR repeats) This gene encodes a protein that contains a N-terminal thrombospondin-type laminin G domain and several tandem arranged epilepsy-associated repeats (EARs). A mutation in this gene is the cause of autosomal recessive deafness-98. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 23, 2015The p.Thr646Met variant in TSPEAR has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss, but has been identified in 1/4564 of African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). Compu tational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong suppor t for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Thr646Met variant is uncertain. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 12, 2021The c.1937C>T (p.T646M) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 12) of the TSPEAR gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1937, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 646 to be replaced by a methionine (M). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 27, 2022In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt TSPEAR protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229376). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TSPEAR-related conditions. 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 sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 646 of the TSPEAR protein (p.Thr646Met). -
