Genes affected

MYO7A (HGNC:7606): (myosin VIIA) This gene is a member of the myosin gene family. Myosins are mechanochemical proteins characterized by the presence of a motor domain, an actin-binding domain, a neck domain that interacts with other proteins, and a tail domain that serves as an anchor. This gene encodes an unconventional myosin with a very short tail. Defects in this gene are associated with the mouse shaker-1 phenotype and the human Usher syndrome 1B which are characterized by deafness, reduced vestibular function, and (in human) retinal degeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The MYO7A c.6247G>A; p.Ala2083Thr variant (rs41298759), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 178496). This variant is found in the Ashkenazi Jewish population with an allele frequency of 0.1% (18/10348 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The alanine at codon 2083 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.276). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Ala2083Thr variant is uncertain at this time. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

A heterozygous missense variant, NM_000260.3(MYO7A):c.6247G>A, has been identified in exon 46 of 49 of the MYO7A gene. The variant is predicted to result in a minor amino acid change from alanine to threonine at position 2083 of the protein (NP_000251.3(MYO7A):p.(Ala2083Thr)). The alanine residue at this position has high conservation (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located within the FERM functional domain. In silico predictions of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting (Polyphen, SIFT, CADD, Mutation Taster). The variant is present in the gnomAD database at a frequency of 0.036% (99 heterozygotes, 1 homozygote). The variant has been previously described as a Variant of Unknown Significance (ClinVar, Deafness Variation Database). Based on the information available at the time of curation, this variant has been classified as a VARIANT of UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE (VUS) with LOW CLINICAL RELEVANCE. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.6247G>A (p.A2083T) alteration is located in exon 46 (coding exon 45) of the MYO7A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 6247, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 2083 to be replaced by a threonine (T). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Ala2083Thr variant in MYO7A is classified as likely benign because it has been identified in 0.2% (18/10348) of Ashkenazi Jewish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), and computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. ACMG/AMP criteria applied: BS1_Supporting, BP4. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
