Genes affected
SYNE4 (HGNC:26703): (spectrin repeat containing nuclear envelope family member 4) This gene is a member of the nesprin family of genes, that encode KASH (Klarsicht, Anc-1, Syne Homology) domain-containing proteins. In addition to the KASH domain, this protein also contains a coiled-coil and leucine zipper region, a spectrin repeat, and a kinesin-1 binding region. This protein localizes to the outer nuclear membrane, and is part of the linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) complex in the nuclear envelope. LINC complexes are formed by SUN (Sad1, UNC-84)-KASH pairs, and are thought to mechanically couple nuclear components to the cytoskeleton. Mutations in this gene have been associated with progressive high-frequency hearing loss. The absence of this protein in mice also caused hearing loss, and changes in hair cell morphology in the ears. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (REVEL=0.028).
BP6
Variant 19-36008586-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-36008586-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 227092.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.199 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00144 (219/152268) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.00656 (34/5184). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00482. There are 3 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 151 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 3 AR gene
