Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 2P and 7B. PM2BP4_StrongBP6_ModerateBP7

The NM_002700.3(POU4F3):c.378G>T(p.Thr126Thr) variant causes a synonymous change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000686 in 1,458,670 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T126T) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

POU4F3 (HGNC:9220): (POU class 4 homeobox 3) This gene encodes a member of the POU-domain family of transcription factors. POU-domain proteins have been observed to play important roles in control of cell identity in several systems. This protein is found in the retina and may play a role in determining or maintaining the identities of a small subset of visual system neurons. Defects in this gene are the cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 15. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

Thr126Thr in exon 02 of POU4F3: This variant is not expected to have clinical si gnificance because it does not alter an amino acid residue and is not located wi thin the splice consensus sequence. While this variant has been not been previou sly reported in individuals with hearing loss or in large population studies, an other variant at this position (378G>A) leading to a synonymous change has been identified in 0.8% (34/4406) of African American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs113137300). -
