ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000180652 SCV000603297 uncertain significance not specified 2019-03-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The WHRN c.1943C>A; p.Ser648Tyr variant (rs142653982; ClinVar Variation ID: 199139) is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.04% (110/281,586 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The serine at position 648 is moderately conserved (Alamut software v2.11) and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) of the effects of the p.Ser648Tyr variant on protein structure and function predict a deleterious effect. WHRN variants p.Ser648Tyr and p.Arg882Ser have been identified in multiple hearing loss cohorts (Aller 2010, Audo 2012, and Sloan-Heggen 2016). However, in at least one of these cohorts (Audo 2012) both variants were identified on the same chromosome and no other variants were identified in WHRN. Furthermore, neither variant has been identified in trans with any other pathogenic variant of WHRN. Therefore, the clinical significance of the p.Ser648Tyr and p.Arg882Ser variants cannot be determined with certainty. References: Aller et al.
