Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000211859 SCV000064814 pathogenic Rare genetic deafness 2012-03-13 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Arg34X variant in TMC1 has been reported in more than 23 probands with sen sorineural hearing loss (Kurima 2002, Ben Said 2010, Sirmaci 2009, Kitajiri 2007 , Shafique 2014). Most of these probands, as well as their affected relatives, w ere homozygous for the variant. The p.Arg34X variant has also been identified in 4/15682 South Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http ://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs121908073). Although this variant has been s een in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. Animal models in mice have shown that loss of TM C1 function causes an auditory phenotype (Kurima 2002). This nonsense variant le ads to a premature termination codon at position 34, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, the p.Arg34X variant meets our cri teria to be classified as pathogenic for hearing loss in an autosomal recessive manner.
ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV000756783 SCV000884693 pathogenic not provided 2017-07-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Arg34Ter variant is the most frequently reported pathogenic variant of TMC1 and is likely a founder variant in North African and Middle Eastern populations (Kurima 2002, Ben Said 2010, Shafique 2014, and Dallol 2016). The c.100C>T variant creates a premature termination codon in exon 7 and is predicted to result in a truncated or absent protein product. Based on these observations the p.Arg34Ter variant has been classified pathogenic.
GeneDx RCV000756783 SCV000890354 pathogenic not provided 2022-03-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 17877751, 27766948, 24949729, 11850618, 29048421, 20373850, 19187973, 31854501, 31541171, 34426522, 32802042, 32747562, 31589614)
Baylor Genetics RCV000004319 SCV001522010 pathogenic Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 7 2020-02-06 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was determined to be pathogenic according to ACMG Guidelines, 2015 [PMID:25741868].
3billion RCV000004319 SCV002058633 pathogenic Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 7 2022-01-03 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant (PVS1_VS).The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000004103, PMID:11850618, 3billion dataset). It is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.000056, PM2_M). Therefore, this variant is classified as pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline.
King Laboratory, University of Washington RCV000004319 SCV002059893 pathogenic Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 7 2020-08-01 criteria provided, single submitter research TMC1 c.100C>T, p.R34* is homozygous in 3 Palestinian children with profound pre-lingual hearing loss It was found also in 2 Palestinian children with hearing loss in compound heterozygosity with TMC1 c.1532C>A. The variant is absent from 1300 Palestinian controls and absent from gnomAD v2.1.1.
Invitae RCV000756783 SCV002218316 pathogenic not provided 2024-01-31 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg34*) in the TMC1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in TMC1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11850618, 22105175). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908073, gnomAD 0.03%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive deafness (PMID: 11850618, 17877751, 31854501). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4103). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
