Genes affected

MYO7A (HGNC:7606): (myosin VIIA) This gene is a member of the myosin gene family. Myosins are mechanochemical proteins characterized by the presence of a motor domain, an actin-binding domain, a neck domain that interacts with other proteins, and a tail domain that serves as an anchor. This gene encodes an unconventional myosin with a very short tail. Defects in this gene are associated with the mouse shaker-1 phenotype and the human Usher syndrome 1B which are characterized by deafness, reduced vestibular function, and (in human) retinal degeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000260.4.
• PP3: No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
• PP5: Variant 11-77198597-AGATCATG-CA is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-77198597-AGATCATG-CA is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 43245.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Oct 13, 2023	In-frame deletion of 3 amino acids and an insertion of 1 amino acid in a non-repeat region; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16963483, 33576163, 27743452) -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Invitae	Apr 08, 2022	This variant, c.4544_4551delinsCA, is a complex sequence change that results in the deletion of 3 and insertion of 1 amino acid(s) in the MYO7A protein (p.Glu1515_Met1517delinsAla). Information on the frequency of this variant in the gnomAD database is not available, as this variant may be reported differently in the database. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of Usher syndrome (PMID: 16963483, 27743452; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.4543_4551delGAGATCATGinsGCA. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The Glu1515_Met1517delinsAla variant in MYO7A has been identified in three proba nds with Usher syndrome (personal communication, W. Kimberling and two in our la boratory). The variant replaces three amino acids with a single new amino acid a nd is therefore likely to impact protein function. In addition, two probands hav e a second pathogenic variant in MYO7A which further supports a causative role. And finally, one proband?s affected sibling was also found to harbor both the 64 39-2A>G variant and this MYO7A variant and parental testing showed the variants were in trans (on two separate copies of the gene). In summary, this data suppor ts the classification of this variant as pathogenic. -
