Genes affected
MYO7A (HGNC:7606): (myosin VIIA) This gene is a member of the myosin gene family. Myosins are mechanochemical proteins characterized by the presence of a motor domain, an actin-binding domain, a neck domain that interacts with other proteins, and a tail domain that serves as an anchor. This gene encodes an unconventional myosin with a very short tail. Defects in this gene are associated with the mouse shaker-1 phenotype and the human Usher syndrome 1B which are characterized by deafness, reduced vestibular function, and (in human) retinal degeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: MYO7A c.5510T>C (p.Leu1837Pro) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.5e-06 in 210262 control chromosomes. c.5510T>C has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Usher Syndrome or hearing loss (e.g., Jiang_2015, Chen_2016, Sun_2018, Bahena_2022, Carlson_2023). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. Additionally, other variants at the Leu1837 residue have been reported as associated with disease (p.Leu1837His), suggesting that this codon is functionally important. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553592). While this variant has been reported in the literature, the clinical significance of the variant for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss could not be established. Based on the evidence outlined above, this variant is pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome. -

Usher syndrome type 1 Pathogenic:1
Feb 28, 2023
King Laboratory, University of Washington
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:research

This variant occurred in compound heterozygosity with a likely pathogenic MYO7A missense variant in a patient with Usher syndrome including bilateral sensorineural hearing loss of onset <18 years, in a study of pediatric hearing loss conducted by the King Laboratory (Carlson RJ et al. JAMA-OtoHNS 2023). This patient's family has no other history of hearing loss. This variant is a missense at a highly conserved site in a MyTH4 domain of the MYO7A protein and is predicted to be damaging by multiple in-silico tools. As of January 2023, this variant has been reported to ClinVar with conflicting interpretations and is found in 2 heterozygotes on gnomAD. Based on consistently predicted functional effect, compound heterozygosity with a known likely pathogenic variant, and goodness of fit of genotype to phenotype, we conclude that this variant is likely pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1837 of the MYO7A protein (p.Leu1837Pro). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive MYO7A-related conditions (PMID: 26338283, 27610647, 29625443). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 553592). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYO7A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Leu1837 amino acid residue in MYO7A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with MYO7A-related conditions (PMID: 27460420), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
