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]

Asn234Asn in exon 5 of TSPEAR: This variant is not expected to have clinical sig nificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located wit hin the splice consensus sequence. It has been identified in 0.6% (51/8600) of E uropean American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequenci ng Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs117791519). -
