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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 09, 2023This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with MYO15A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 517420). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant is present in population databases (rs778404517, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 46 of the MYO15A gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in MYO15A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17546645). -
Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 13, 2017The c.8341-2A>C variant in MYO15A has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss, but has been identified in 4/126622 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSN P rs778404517). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, i ts frequency is low enough to be consistent with a carrier frequency for recessi ve hearing loss. This variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1,2) of the sp lice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be class ified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive hearing loss based on the predicted impact to the protein. -
