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.

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The Thr15Ile varian t in DFNB31 has not been reported in the literature nor previously identified by our laboratory. Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, cons ervation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or a gainst an impact to the protein. In summary, additional data is needed to determ ine the clinical significance of this variant. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 163057). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WHRN-related conditions. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 15 of the WHRN protein (p.Thr15Ile). -
