Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 2P and 4B. PM2BP4_Strong

The NM_015404.4(WHRN):​c.2677C>T​(p.Arg893Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000144 in 1,461,734 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 13/21 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R893G) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
WHRN (HGNC:16361): (whirlin) This gene is thought to function in the organization and stabilization of sterocilia elongation and actin cystoskeletal assembly, based on studies of the related mouse gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness and Usher Syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 09, 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The cysteine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1022464). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WHRN-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs138323921, gnomAD 0.009%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 893 of the WHRN protein (p.Arg893Cys). -
