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]

MYO7A c.1117C>T, p.R373C alters a completely conserved residue of MYO7A in all sequenced vertebrates. The variant is homozygous in 8 Palestinian children from an extended kindred with severe to profound pre-lingual hearing loss (Abu Rayyan 2020). The variant is absent from 1300 Palestinian controls and absent from gnomAD v2.1.1. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 373 of the MYO7A protein (p.Arg373Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness (PMID: 22903915, 30733538, 32467589, 32747562). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228997). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt MYO7A protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: MYO7A c.1117C>T (p.Arg373Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Myosin head, motor domain (IPR001609) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.5e-06 in 1425190 control chromosomes. c.1117C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Usher Syndrome in the homozygous state and segregated with disease in at least one family (e.g. Babanejad_2012, AbuRayyan_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 32747562, 22903915). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228997). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Arg373Cys variant in MYO7A has been reported in 2 Iranian siblings with hearing loss, bot h of whom were homozygous for the variant (Babanejad 2012). Data from large popu lation studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of this variant; however, the variant was reportedly not identified in 200 Iranian chromosomes (Babanejad 2012). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that th is variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive eno ugh to determine pathogenicity. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of the p.Arg373Cys variant is uncerta in. -
