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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 18, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Asp2375Valfs*41) in the MYO15A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MYO15A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17546645). This variant is present in population databases (rs780170125, gnomAD 0.009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with non-syndromic deafness (PMID: 24875298, 26969326, 32860223). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435919). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineAug 17, 2017The p.Asp2375fs variant in MYO15A has been previously reported in two individual s with hearing loss who also had a second variant on the remaining copy of MYO15 A (Vona 2014, Sloan-Heggen 2015). This variant has also been identified in 11/1 26686 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gn omad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs763553435). Although this variant has been see n in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, w hich alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 2375 and lea ds to a premature termination codon 41 amino acids downstream. This alteration i s then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the MYO15A gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive nonsy ndromic sensorineural hearing loss. In summary, this variant meets criteria to b e classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive hearing loss based on the pre dicted impact on the protein, compound heterozygosity in multiple affected indiv iduals, and low allele frequency in the general population consistent with a rec essive carrier frequency. -
