Genes affected
POU4F3 (HGNC:9220): (POU class 4 homeobox 3) This gene encodes a member of the POU-domain family of transcription factors. POU-domain proteins have been observed to play important roles in control of cell identity in several systems. This protein is found in the retina and may play a role in determining or maintaining the identities of a small subset of visual system neurons. Defects in this gene are the cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 15. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_002700.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 11 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 0.60352 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 15, autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, nonsyndromic genetic hearing loss.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.935

The p.Thr279Arg variant in POU4F3 has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss and was absent from large population studies. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Thr279Arg variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to dete rmine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Thr279Arg va riant is uncertain. -
