Genes affected
STRC (HGNC:16035): (stereocilin) This gene encodes a protein that is associated with the hair bundle of the sensory hair cells in the inner ear. The hair bundle is composed of stiff microvilli called stereocilia and is involved with mechanoreception of sound waves. This gene is part of a tandem duplication on chromosome 15; the second copy is a pseudogene. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
CKMT1B (HGNC:1995): (creatine kinase, mitochondrial 1B) Mitochondrial creatine (MtCK) kinase is responsible for the transfer of high energy phosphate from mitochondria to the cytosolic carrier, creatine. It belongs to the creatine kinase isoenzyme family. It exists as two isoenzymes, sarcomeric MtCK and ubiquitous MtCK, encoded by separate genes. Mitochondrial creatine kinase occurs in two different oligomeric forms: dimers and octamers, in contrast to the exclusively dimeric cytosolic creatine kinase isoenzymes. Many malignant cancers with poor prognosis have shown overexpression of ubiquitous mitochondrial creatine kinase; this may be related to high energy turnover and failure to eliminate cancer cells via apoptosis. Ubiquitous mitochondrial creatine kinase has 80% homology with the coding exons of sarcomeric mitochondrial creatine kinase. Two genes located near each other on chromosome 15 have been identified which encode identical mitochondrial creatine kinase proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing variant, NOT destroyed by nmd, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.029279279 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.3, offset of -33, new splice context is: gcaggtcctgatctgtccAGatc. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 15-43604153-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-43604153-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 505435.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

STRC-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 20, 2024The STRC c.4219-1G>A variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.017% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in STRC are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 16, 2020The c.4219-1G>A variant in STRC has been previously reported by our laboratory in 1 individual with hearing loss who was compound heterozygous for a second truncating STRC variant, though phase was not confirmed. This variant has been identified in 0.01% (4/24064) of Finnish chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant occurs within the canonical splice site (+/- 1,2) and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Loss of function of the STRC gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive sensorineural hearing loss. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive sensorineural hearing loss.
