Genes affected
MYO3A (HGNC:7601): (myosin IIIA) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the myosin superfamily. Myosins are actin-dependent motor proteins and are categorized into conventional myosins (class II) and unconventional myosins (classes I and III through XV) based on their variable C-terminal cargo-binding domains. Class III myosins, such as this one, have a kinase domain N-terminal to the conserved N-terminal motor domains and are expressed in photoreceptors. The protein encoded by this gene plays an important role in hearing in humans. Three different recessive, loss of function mutations in the encoded protein have been shown to cause nonsyndromic progressive hearing loss. Expression of this gene is highly restricted, with the strongest expression in retina and cochlea. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

585+4A>T in intron 7 of MYO3A: This variant is not expected to have clinical sig nificance of because it has been identified in 0.2% (10/4406) of African America n chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project and in 1% (3/314) of African chromosomes by the 1000 Genomes Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbS NP rs202189844). In addition, this variant, which is located in the 5' splice re gion, is not in the invariant +1/+2 splice site positions and computational tool s do not predict an impact to splicing. -
