Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points: 0P and 3B. BP4_ModerateBS1_Supporting

The NM_015404.4(WHRN):c.1625G>A(p.Arg542Lys) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000186 in 1,613,950 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 2/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. 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. R542T) 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. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.19447753).

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000112 (17/152214) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.000409 (17/41550). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00026. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 7 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
