NM_016239.4:c.996C>G

Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1PM2_SupportingPM3_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The allele frequency of the c.996C>G (p.Tyr332Ter) variant in the MYO15A gene is 0.004% (50/1179998) of European non-Finnish alleles by gnomAD v4.1.1, which is a low enough frequency to apply PM2_Supporting based on the thresholds defined by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Expert Panel for autosomal recessive hearing loss (PM2_Supporting). The p.Tyr332Ter variant in MYO15A is predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant-exon 2/66 that leads to a truncated or absent protein in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established mechanism (PVS1). One proband with SNHL with a loss of function pathogenic variant but without parent testing was found in LMM internal data (PM3_Supporting). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive hearing loss based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the Hearing Loss Expert Panel: PM2_Supporting, PVS1, PM3_Supporting.

Genes affected
MYO15A (HGNC:7594): (myosin XVA) This gene encodes an unconventional myosin. This protein differs from other myosins in that it has a long N-terminal extension preceding the conserved motor domain. Studies in mice suggest that this protein is necessary for actin organization in the hair cells of the cochlea. Mutations in this gene have been associated with profound, congenital, neurosensory, nonsyndromal deafness. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Read-through transcripts containing an upstream gene and this gene have been identified, but they are not thought to encode a fusion protein. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
