Genes affected
STRC (HGNC:16035): (stereocilin) This gene encodes a protein that is associated with the hair bundle of the sensory hair cells in the inner ear. The hair bundle is composed of stiff microvilli called stereocilia and is involved with mechanoreception of sound waves. This gene is part of a tandem duplication on chromosome 15; the second copy is a pseudogene. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineDec 02, 2022The c.2303_2313+1del variant in STRC has been identified by our laboratory in one family with hearing loss who had a likely pathogenic variant on the remaining copy of STRC and segregated in 2 affected family members. This variant has also been previously identified in 5 individuals with hearing loss, one of whom was homozygous, another who was compound heterozygous for an additional missense variant in STRC, and three of whom were heterozygous and lacked a second STRC variant (Francey 2012 PMID: 22147502, Vona 2015 PMID: 26011646, Brozkova 2020 PMID: 32860223). Data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of this variant. This variant is a deletion of 12 nucleotides including the last 11 nucleotides of exon 6 and the nucleotide at the +1 position in the intron. While this variant deletes the invariant +1 position of the splice consensus sequence, splice prediction tools indicate that the variant may result in an alternate splice site which would delete 12 nucleotides and therefore could result in an in-frame deletion of four amino acid residues. Furthermore, the sequence of the 12 nucleotides that are deleted are part of a repetitive sequence, and species conservation shows that the four deleted amino acids are only present in 1 other mammal (chimpanzee). This raises the possibility that an alternate splice site at this position may not impact the protein. However, it is also possible that this variant would cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein, due the fact that this variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1/2) of the splice consensus sequence. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the c.2303_2313+1del variant is uncertain due to the lack of frequency information and the conflicting conservation and computational data.
