Genes affected
CRYM (HGNC:2418): (crystallin mu) Crystallins are separated into two classes: taxon-specific and ubiquitous. The former class is also called phylogenetically-restricted crystallins. The latter class constitutes the major proteins of vertebrate eye lens and maintains the transparency and refractive index of the lens. This gene encodes a taxon-specific crystallin protein that binds NADPH and has sequence similarity to bacterial ornithine cyclodeaminases. The encoded protein does not perform a structural role in lens tissue, and instead it binds thyroid hormone for possible regulatory or developmental roles. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal dominant non-syndromic deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2014]

not provided Uncertain:1Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 11, 2020In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 27, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 254 of the CRYM protein (p.Ala254Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs727505275, gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CRYM-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179999). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CRYM protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineNov 20, 2014Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Ala254Val var iant in CRYM has not been reported in any other families with hearing loss or in large population studies. Computational prediction tools and conservation analy sis suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. However, the presence of this variant in an unaffected parent decreases the likelihood that it is pathogenic. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Ala254Val variant is unc ertain, these data suggest that it is more likely to be benign. -
