RCV004018187 | SCV004848717 | likely pathogenic | Rare genetic deafness | 2022-06-30 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The p.Gln354X variant in TECTA has not been previously reported in individuals with nonsyndromic hearing loss and was absent from large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 354, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the TECTA gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss.
