Genes affected
WHRN (HGNC:16361): (whirlin) This gene is thought to function in the organization and stabilization of sterocilia elongation and actin cystoskeletal assembly, based on studies of the related mouse gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness and Usher Syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

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

The S12L variant in the DFNB31 gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant, nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. Sufficient data from control individuals in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project data set were not available to assess whether the S12L variant may be a common benign variant in the general population. The S12L variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Therefore, we interpret S12L as a variant of uncertain significance. -

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

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 12 of the WHRN protein (p.Ser12Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs760261757, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with WHRN-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228564). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -

The p.Ser12Leu variant in DFNB31 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss or Usher syndrome. Data from large population studies is insu fficient to assess the frequency of this variant. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis do not provide strong support for or against an impac t to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ser12Leu varian t is uncertain. -
