Genes affected
LOXHD1 (HGNC:26521): (lipoxygenase homology PLAT domains 1) This gene encodes a highly conserved protein consisting entirely of PLAT (polycystin/lipoxygenase/alpha-toxin) domains, thought to be involved in targeting proteins to the plasma membrane. Studies in mice show that this gene is expressed in the mechanosensory hair cells in the inner ear, and mutations in this gene lead to auditory defects, indicating that this gene is essential for normal hair cell function. Screening of human families segregating deafness identified a mutation in this gene which causes DFNB77, a progressive form of autosomal-recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 31589614, 32149082, 26973026, 22341973, 19732867)

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg670*) in the LOXHD1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in LOXHD1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 19732867, 21465660, 25792669). This variant is present in population databases (rs121918370, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with hearing loss (PMID: 19732867). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 395). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

The LOXHD1 c.2008C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg670*). This variant has been reported to segregate with disease in the homozygous state in a consanguineous kindred with progressive hearing loss (Grillet et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19732867). This variant is reported in 0.0044% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/18-44152088-G-A). Nonsense variants in LOXHD1 are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/395). Given the evidence, we interpret c.2008C>T (p.Arg670*) as pathogenic.
