Genes affected
WHRN (HGNC:16361): (whirlin) This gene is thought to function in the organization and stabilization of sterocilia elongation and actin cystoskeletal assembly, based on studies of the related mouse gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness and Usher Syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -8 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.92).
BP6
Variant 9-114406479-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr9-114406479-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 199138.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=3, Uncertain_significance=1}.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-7.07 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000105 (16/152310) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000784 (12/15300). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000452. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 5 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. This position pass quality control queck.
