Genes affected

POU3F4 (HGNC:9217): (POU class 3 homeobox 4) This gene encodes a member of the POU-III class of neural transcription factors. This family member plays a role in inner ear development. The protein is thought to be involved in the mediation of epigenetic signals which induce striatal neuron-precursor differentiation. Mutations in this gene are associated with X chromosome-linked nonsyndromic mixed deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 43346). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with X-linked recessive deafness (PMID: 21633365). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp114*) in the POU3F4 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 248 amino acid(s) of the POU3F4 protein. -
