Genes affected

STRC (HGNC:16035): (stereocilin) This gene encodes a protein that is associated with the hair bundle of the sensory hair cells in the inner ear. The hair bundle is composed of stiff microvilli called stereocilia and is involved with mechanoreception of sound waves. This gene is part of a tandem duplication on chromosome 15; the second copy is a pseudogene. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -14 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.56).
• BP6: Variant 15-43609278-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr15-43609278-C-T is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 227966.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.612 with no splicing effect.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 2 AR geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
