Genes affected

TECTA (HGNC:11720): (tectorin alpha) The tectorial membrane is an extracellular matrix of the inner ear that contacts the stereocilia bundles of specialized sensory hair cells. Sound induces movement of these hair cells relative to the tectorial membrane, deflects the stereocilia, and leads to fluctuations in hair-cell membrane potential, transducing sound into electrical signals. Alpha-tectorin is one of the major noncollagenous components of the tectorial membrane. Mutations in the TECTA gene have been shown to be responsible for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing impairment and a recessive form of sensorineural pre-lingual non-syndromic deafness.

TBCEL-TECTA (HGNC:54857): (TBCEL-TECTA readthrough) Predicted to enable alpha-tubulin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization; post-chaperonin tubulin folding pathway; and tubulin complex assembly. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm.

The p.Asn1147Ser variant in TECTA has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss or in large population studies. Splice prediction tools indi cate the possible creation of a cryptic splice site; however, this information i s not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. Additional computational pr ediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or ag ainst an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.A sn1147Ser variant is uncertain. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.3440A>G (p.N1147S) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 10) of the TECTA gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 3440, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 1147 to be replaced by a serine (S). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
