Genes affected

MITF (HGNC:7105): (melanocyte inducing transcription factor) The protein encoded by this gene is a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. The encoded protein regulates melanocyte development and is responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

The c.355-8A>G variant in MITF has not been previously reported in individuals w ith hearing loss or in large population studies. This variant is located in the 3' splice region. Computational tools do not suggest an impact to splicing. Howe ver, this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. In sum mary, the clinical significance of the c.355-8A>G variant is uncertain. -
