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]
TSPEAR-AS2 (HGNC:16428): (TSPEAR antisense RNA 2)

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteJun 11, 2020Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.1.1, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease for this gene. (N) 0106 - This gene is known to be associated with autosomal recessive disease. (N) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (exon 9 of 12). (P) 0251 - Variant is heterozygous. (N) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (92 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (P) 0507 - Identified variant type is not compatible with in silico predictions of pathogenicity. (N) 0703 - Comparable variants have moderate previous evidence for pathogenicity (ClinVar; PMID:27736875). (P) 0803 - Low previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individual(s). This variant has been reported as compound heterozygous in a patient with non-syndromic oligodontia (PMID:32112661). It has also been reported as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar. (P) 0905 - No segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (N) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (N) 1206 - Variant is paternally inherited.

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 21, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg510*) 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). This variant is present in population databases (rs201663789, gnomAD 0.06%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of ectodermal dysplasia and/or non-syndromic oligodontia (PMID: 32112661; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504870). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 02, 2017The p.Arg510X variant in TSPEAR has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss, but has been identified in 82/126654 of European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomAD.broadinstitute.org; db SNP rs201663789). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This nonsense v ariant leads to a premature termination codon at position 510, which is predicte d to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Truncating variants have been previo usly reported in two probands with hearing loss and segregated in two affected s iblings in one family (Delmaghani 2012, Sloan-Heggen 2016). However, a recent st udy has also associated truncating variants in TSPEAR, including the same varian t previously reported by Delmaghani et al, with autosomal recessive ectodermal d ysplasia without hearing loss (Peled 2016). Therefore, additional information i s needed to determine the gene-disease association and the disease mechanism. In summary, because the gene-disease association is unclear, the clinical signific ance of this variant is uncertain. -
