Genes affected
CHRNA9 (HGNC:14079): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 9 subunit) This gene is a member of the ligand-gated ionic channel family and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor gene superfamily. It encodes a plasma membrane protein that forms homo- or hetero-oligomeric divalent cation channels. This protein is involved in cochlea hair cell development and is also expressed in the outer hair cells (OHCs) of the adult cochlea. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 16, 2021The c.505T>C (p.C169R) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the CHRNA9 gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 505, causing the cysteine (C) at amino acid position 169 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
