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

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.837

The Gly226Arg variant in DFNB31 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss and was absent from large population studies. Computational pr ediction tools and conservation analyses suggest this variant may impact the pro tein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicit y. In summary, additional information is needed to fully assess the clinical sig nificance of this variant. -
