Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000601432 SCV000710850 pathogenic Rare genetic deafness 2017-07-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Lys420X variant in MYO7A has been identified in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in 6 individuals with clinical features of Usher syndrome (B onnet 2016, Le Quesne Stabej 2012, Shahzad 2013). In one study, this variant was identified in the homozygous state in 4 separate families of Pakistani descent with histories of consanguinity and segregated in over 10 affected family member s (Shahzad 2013). It has also been identified in 4/235612 chromosomes by the Gen ome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs7825 39587); however, this frequency is low enough to be consistent with a carrier fr equency for recessive Usher syndrome. The p.Lys420X nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 420, which is predicted to lead to a tru ncated or absent protein. Loss of MYO7A gene function is an established disease mechanism for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome. In summary, this variant meet s criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome based on the predicted impact of the variant, homozygosity and compound zygosit y in affected individuals, segregation evidence, and low frequency in the genera l population.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001091730 SCV002157629 pathogenic not provided 2025-01-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Lys420*) 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 (rs782539587, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with MYO7A-related conditions (PMID: 23770805, 29692870, 31479088). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504508). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Genetics and Molecular Pathology, SA Pathology RCV003447544 SCV004175320 pathogenic Autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 11; Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 2; Usher syndrome type 1 2023-02-09 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The MYO7A c.1258A>T variant is classified as a PATHOGENIC variant (PVS1, PM3_Strong) This variant is a single nucleotide change in exon 12/49 of the MYO7A gene, which is predicted to result in premature termination of the protein product at codon 420, causing loss of normal protein function (PVS1). The variant has been reported homozygous or compound heterozygous with another pathogenic MYO7A variant in multiple unrelated individuals affected with hearing loss or Usher syndrome (PMID: 22135276, 23770805, 27460420, 29692870, 31479088) (PM3_Strong). The variant has been reported in dbSNP (rs782539587) but is rare in population databases (gmomAD v2: 4/124267, 0 homozygotes). The variant has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: #504508) and HGMD (Accession no.: CM071018) as pathogenic/disease causing.
