Genes affected
TSPEAR (HGNC:1268): (thrombospondin type laminin G domain and EAR repeats) This gene encodes a protein that contains a N-terminal thrombospondin-type laminin G domain and several tandem arranged epilepsy-associated repeats (EARs). A mutation in this gene is the cause of autosomal recessive deafness-98. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [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: 505557). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with TSPEAR-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs782471965, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg268*) in the TSPEAR gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TSPEAR are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 34042254). -

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Arg268X variant in TSPEAR has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss, but has been identified in 1/66396 of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP r s782471965). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This nonsense varian t leads to a premature termination codon at position 268, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. However, there is only moderate evidence to support an association of TSPEAR with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearin g loss. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg268X variant is uncert ain. -
