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]

Variant summary: LOXHD1 c.6153T>C (p.Asn2051Asn) alters a conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. Consensus agreement among computation tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00022 in 156322 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0032 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2.86 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in LOXHD1 causing Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss And Deafness, Type 77 phenotype (0.0011), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.6153T>C in individuals affected with Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss And Deafness, Type 77 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. One submitter has cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
