Genes affected
MYO15A (HGNC:7594): (myosin XVA) This gene encodes an unconventional myosin. This protein differs from other myosins in that it has a long N-terminal extension preceding the conserved motor domain. Studies in mice suggest that this protein is necessary for actin organization in the hair cells of the cochlea. Mutations in this gene have been associated with profound, congenital, neurosensory, nonsyndromal deafness. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Read-through transcripts containing an upstream gene and this gene have been identified, but they are not thought to encode a fusion protein. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.4483-6G>A variant in MYO15A has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss, but has been identified in 4/64942 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs 771397877). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its f requency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This variant is locat ed in the 3' splice region. Computational tools do not suggest an impact to spli cing. However, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenici ty. In summary, the clinical significance of the c.4483-6G>A variant is uncertai n. -
