Genes affected

CHRNA9 (HGNC:14079): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 9 subunit) This gene is a member of the ligand-gated ionic channel family and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor gene superfamily. It encodes a plasma membrane protein that forms homo- or hetero-oligomeric divalent cation channels. This protein is involved in cochlea hair cell development and is also expressed in the outer hair cells (OHCs) of the adult cochlea. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.84).
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (AFR) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.117 is higher than 0.05.
