Genes affected
MYO15A (HGNC:7594): (myosin XVA) This gene encodes an unconventional myosin. This protein differs from other myosins in that it has a long N-terminal extension preceding the conserved motor domain. Studies in mice suggest that this protein is necessary for actin organization in the hair cells of the cochlea. Mutations in this gene have been associated with profound, congenital, neurosensory, nonsyndromal deafness. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Read-through transcripts containing an upstream gene and this gene have been identified, but they are not thought to encode a fusion protein. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2263 of the MYO15A protein (p.Gly2263Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs375459945, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with deafness (PMID: 26969326, 28000701; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504632). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYO15A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

This variant MYO15A c.6787G>A (NM_016239.3) is a novel missense change at an amino acid residue where a different missense change determined to be pathogenic has been seen before (PM5), Multiple lines of computational evidence support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (conservation, evolutionary, splicing impact, etc.) (PP3), Reputable source recently reports variant as pathogenic, but the evidence is not available to the laboratory to perform an independent evaluation (PP5).

Variant summary: MYO15A c.6787G>A (p.Gly2263Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.1e-05 in 226754 control chromosomes. c.6787G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing (examples: Sloan-Heggen_2016, ZazoCelia_2016,Schobers_2025, internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 39333430, 26969326, 28000701).ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504632). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:flagged submission
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Gly2263Se r variant in MYO15A has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic MYO15A variant in an individual with hearing loss (Sloan-Heggen 2016) . It has also been identified in 1/52508 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggre gation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs375459945); how ever, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier fre quency. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses suggest that th is variant may not impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the p.Gly2263Ser variant is unc ertain.
