Genes affected

MITF (HGNC:7105): (melanocyte inducing transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. The encoded protein regulates melanocyte development and is responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

This sequence change falls in intron 3 of the MITF gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the MITF protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs374067688, gnomAD 0.009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MITF-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504813). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The c.666+5T>C vari ant in MITF has been identified by our laboratory in one individual with hearing loss and their reportedly unaffected parent. Notably, a likely alternate etiolo gy was identified in the proband. The c.666+5C>T variant has also been identifie d in 0.01% (13/128806) of European chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadins titute.org). This variant is located in the 5' splice region. Computational tool s do not suggest an impact to splicing, but this information is not predictive e nough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, while the clinical significance of the c.666+5T>C variant is uncertain, available data suggest that it is more like ly to be benign. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: BP4. -
