Genes affected
MYO7A (HGNC:7606): (myosin VIIA) This gene is a member of the myosin gene family. Myosins are mechanochemical proteins characterized by the presence of a motor domain, an actin-binding domain, a neck domain that interacts with other proteins, and a tail domain that serves as an anchor. This gene encodes an unconventional myosin with a very short tail. Defects in this gene are associated with the mouse shaker-1 phenotype and the human Usher syndrome 1B which are characterized by deafness, reduced vestibular function, and (in human) retinal degeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.001%). Predicted Consequence/Location: Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported to be associated with MYO7A-related disorder (ClinVar ID: VCV000228377 /PMID: 24618850 /3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Cys705*) in the MYO7A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MYO7A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 8900236, 25404053). This variant is present in population databases (rs782255281, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 24618850, 33691693). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228377). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Cys705X variant in MYO7A has been reported as a homozygous variant in one individual with Usher syndrome type 1 (Yoshimura 2014). It has also been identif ied in 2/8608 East Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (http:/ /exac.broadinstitute.org). Although this variant has been seen in the general po pulation, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This nonsense variant creates a premature termination codon at positi on 705 and is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, th is variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic for Usher syndrome (www.partners.org/personalizedmedicine/lmm). -
