Genes affected

MYO6 (HGNC:7605): (myosin VI) This gene encodes a reverse-direction motor protein that moves toward the minus end of actin filaments and plays a role in intracellular vesicle and organelle transport. The protein consists of a motor domain containing an ATP- and an actin-binding site and a globular tail which interacts with other proteins. This protein maintains the structural integrity of inner ear hair cells and mutations in this gene cause non-syndromic autosomal dominant and recessive hearing loss. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 6-75890208-GAA-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr6-75890208-GAA-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 228375.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr6-75890208-GAA-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg939Thrfs*2) in the MYO6 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in MYO6 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 12687499, 18348273, 23767834, 25999546, 30582396). This variant is present in population databases (rs753233152, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (PMID: 25227905). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228375). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg939fs variant in MYO6 has been previously reported in 1 individual with nonsyndromic hearing loss and was found to segregate with disease in 14 affecte d family members in an autosomal dominant manner (Cheng 2014). It has also been identified in 1/66162 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium ( ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org). This variant is predicted to cause a fram eshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 939 and lead to a premature termination codon 2 amino acids downstream. This altera tion is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Truncating or l oss-of-function variants in the MYO6 gene have been associated with autosomal re cessive congenital sensorineural hearing loss (Ahmed 2003) as well as autosomal dominant postlingual/late-onset progressive sensorineural hearing loss with vari able onset and severity (Hilgert 2008, Sanggaard 2008, Neveling 2013, Schrauwen 2013, Volk 2013). In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified a s pathogenic for dominantly inherited nonsyndromic hearing loss based upon the s egregation studies in the reported family and its predicted impact to the protei n. -
