Genes affected
TSPEAR (HGNC:1268): (thrombospondin type laminin G domain and EAR repeats) This gene encodes a protein that contains a N-terminal thrombospondin-type laminin G domain and several tandem arranged epilepsy-associated repeats (EARs). A mutation in this gene is the cause of autosomal recessive deafness-98. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 29, 2016The p.Arg203Gln variant in TSPEAR has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss. This variant has been identified in 2/65340 European chromo somes and 1/11418 of Latino chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExA C, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs781964053). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule o ut a pathogenic role. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses s uggest that the p.Arg203Gln variant may impact the protein, though this informat ion is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinica l significance of the p.Arg203Gln variant is uncertain. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 09, 2023The c.608G>A (p.R203Q) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the TSPEAR gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 608, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 203 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
