Genes affected
OTOG (HGNC:8516): (otogelin) The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the acellular membranes of the inner ear. Disruption of the orthologous mouse gene shows that it plays a role in auditory and vestibular functions. It is involved in fibrillar network organization, the anchoring of otoconial membranes and cupulae to the neuroepithelia, and likely in sound stimulation resistance. Mutations in this gene cause autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness, type 18B. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

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

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val179Trpfs*53) in the OTOG gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in OTOG are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 23122587). This variant is present in population databases (rs751127167, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with OTOG-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228284). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

The p.Val179fs variant in OTOG has not been previously reported in individuals w ith hearing loss. This variant has been identified in 1/722 of African chromosom es by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org); h owever, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier f requency. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the prot ein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 179 and leads to a premature ter mination codon 53 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to l ead to a truncated or absent protein. Two loss of function variants in the OTOG gene have been reported to segregate with hearing loss in two families (Schrader s 2012), and disruption of Otog in mice resulted in deafness supporting of a los s-of-function mechanism for the disease (Simmler 2000). While these two studies provide evidence of a causative link between loss of function of OTOG and autoso mal recessive hearing loss, to date, no other publications report on OTOG varian ts in individuals with hearing loss. In summary, although additional evidence is required to strengthen the gene-disease association for OTOG and hearing loss, the current data supports a likely pathogenic role for the p.Val179fs variant. -
