Genes affected
AIFM1 (HGNC:8768): (apoptosis inducing factor mitochondria associated 1) This gene encodes a flavoprotein essential for nuclear disassembly in apoptotic cells, and it is found in the mitochondrial intermembrane space in healthy cells. Induction of apoptosis results in the translocation of this protein to the nucleus where it affects chromosome condensation and fragmentation. In addition, this gene product induces mitochondria to release the apoptogenic proteins cytochrome c and caspase-9. Mutations in this gene cause combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 6 (COXPD6), a severe mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, as well as Cowchock syndrome, also known as X-linked recessive Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease-4 (CMTX-4), a disorder resulting in neuropathy, and axonal and motor-sensory defects with deafness and cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene has been identified on chromosome 10. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
RAB33A (HGNC:9773): (RAB33A, member RAS oncogene family) The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the small GTPase superfamily, Rab family. It is GTP-binding protein and may be involved in vesicle transport. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Identified as heterozygous in several unrelated Chinese females with bilateral auditory neuropathy in published literature, and in one female with unilateral auditory neuropathy, suggesting possible X-linked dominant inheritance (PMID: 34175691, 32684920); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Observed in 37/14851 (0.2491%) alleles from individuals of East Asian background in large population cohorts (gnomAD); unknown if this represents a pathogenic founder variant or a common benign variant in this population; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 31832524, Chai_2021_Editorial, 34175691, 32684920, 25986071, 35578252) -

The AIFM1 c.1030C>T; p.Leu344Phe variant (rs184474885, ClinVar Variation ID: 162477) is reported in the literature in individuals affected with auditory neuropathy, including affected heterozygous female patients (Song 2021, Wang 2020, Zong 2015). Additionally, this variant was found in an individual affected with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease-4 (Chen 2022), and in an infant with focal seizures (Ma 2019). This variant is found in the East Asian population with an allele frequency of 0.25% (37/14,851 alleles, including 20 hemizygotes) in the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1). Computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.279). Due to conflicting information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain at this time. References: Chen J et al.
