The p.Asp179Tyr variant in MYO6 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss and was absent from large population studies. The aspartic aci d (Asp) residue at position 179 is highly conserved across species including mic e, and the same variant (p.Asp179Tyr) was identified in a dominant mouse mutant (Tailchaser) displaying hearing and vestibular dysfunction (Hertzano 2008). Scan ning electron microscopy (SEM) of cochlea from both heterozygous and homozygous Tailchaser mice showed structural defects in the stereocilia, and severely disor ganized hair bundles compared to wild-type mice. In addition, an in vitro functi onal assay revealed that the mutant p.Asp179Tyr protein localized to endocytic v esicles but failed to transport the vesicles to the early endosome (Hertzano 200 8). In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic based on the functional evidence and absence in the general population. -
