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.

Reported in association with autosomal dominant hearing loss in published literature (PMID: 21520338); In silico analysis indicates that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Located in the von Willebrand factor type D3 subdomain of the zonadhesin domain (PMID: 21520338, 31554319, 9590290); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25262649, 30245029, 27368438, 21520338, 31554319, 9590290) -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The Asp1136His variant in TECTA has been reported in a Spanish family with domin ant postlingual mid-frequency hearing loss (Hildebrand 2011); however, the autho rs did not report the number of family members who were tested and whether the v ariant co-segregated in all affected members. This variant has also been identif ied in 0.05% (2/4406) of African American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequenc ing Project and in 1/100 (1%) Puerto Rican chromosomes by the 1000 Genomes Proje ct (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs147890616). Although, this varian t has been reported in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid pr operties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong su pport for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, additional informatio n is needed to fully assess the clinical significance of this variant. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
