Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PP1PM2_SupportingPS4_SupportingPVS1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_004999.4:c.238C>T (p.Arg80Ter) variant in MYO6 is a nonsense variant predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant-exon 4 and is predicted to lead to nonsense mediated decay in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established disease mechanism (PVS1). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.0008% (1/113330 alleles) in the European (non-Finnish) population, which is lower than the ClinGen Hearing Loss VCEP threshold (≤0.002%) for PM2_Supporting. This variant has been reported in 2 families with teenage onset progressive sensorineural hearing loss, both displaying an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance (PS4_Supporting; PMID:32143290, 33111345). The variant has been reported to segregate with hearing loss in 2 affected family members from 1 family (PP1; PMID:33111345). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as Pathogenic for autosomal dominant hearing loss, based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert Panel: (PVS1, PM2_Supporting, PS4_Supporting, PP1).

Genes affected
MYO6 (HGNC:7605): (myosin VI) This gene encodes a reverse-direction motor protein that moves toward the minus end of actin filaments and plays a role in intracellular vesicle and organelle transport. The protein consists of a motor domain containing an ATP- and an actin-binding site and a globular tail which interacts with other proteins. This protein maintains the structural integrity of inner ear hair cells and mutations in this gene cause non-syndromic autosomal dominant and recessive hearing loss. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 05, 2013The Arg80X variant in MYO6 has not been reported in individuals with hearing los s or in large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature ter mination codon at position 80, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or abse nt protein. Nonsense variants in the MYO6 gene have been reported as disease cau sing variants in families with hearing loss. In summary, this variant is likely pathogenic, though additional studies are required to fully establish its clinic al significance. -
