Genes affected
MYO15A (HGNC:7594): (myosin XVA) This gene encodes an unconventional myosin. This protein differs from other myosins in that it has a long N-terminal extension preceding the conserved motor domain. Studies in mice suggest that this protein is necessary for actin organization in the hair cells of the cochlea. Mutations in this gene have been associated with profound, congenital, neurosensory, nonsyndromal deafness. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Read-through transcripts containing an upstream gene and this gene have been identified, but they are not thought to encode a fusion protein. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJul 22, 2022Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27344577, 34652575, 26226137) -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 17, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro2409Glnfs*8) in the MYO15A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MYO15A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17546645). This variant is present in population databases (rs759151127, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with nonsyndromic deafness (PMID: 26226137). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 164548). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 26, 2019The p.Pro2409fs variant in MYO15A has been previously reported by our laboratory in 3 individuals with hearing loss. Two of these individuals harbored a second pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in MYO15A, and one individual was homozygous for the variant. It has also been identified in 0.008% (3/35356) of Latino chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 2409 and leads to a premature termination codon 8 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive hearing loss.
