RCV003716906 | SCV004504674 | pathogenic | not provided | 2023-03-20 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (PMID: 17718865). This variant disrupts a region of the DFNB59 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Val330Leufs*7) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17718865). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Phe242Leufs*7) in the DFNB59 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 111 amino acid(s) of the DFNB59 protein. |
