Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000217542 SCV000271465 pathogenic Rare genetic deafness 2015-06-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Asp572Asn in TMC1 has been previously reported in 3 probands with nonsyndr omic bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, and segregated with disease in a domi nant pattern in >10 affected family members (Kurima 2002, Hilgert 2009, Makishim a 2004, Wei 2014). The hearing loss was reported to be progressive with a postli ngual onset. The variant was identified in one unaffected individual from one fa mily, indicating that the penetrance may not be complete; however the age of thi s individual was also not reported (Hilgert 2009). This variant was absent from large population databases. A variant affecting the same amino acid (p.Asp572His ) has also been reported in an individual with hearing loss and segregated in 7 affected family members including 2 obligate carriers (Kitajiri 2007), further s upporting that missense variants at this position are not tolerated. Unlike loss of function variants in TMC1, which cause recessive hearing loss, these studies indicate that the p.Asp572Asn and p.Asp572His missense variants cause dominant hearing loss. In summary, the p.Asp572Asn variant meets our criteria to be class ified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant sensorineural hearing loss (http://ww w.partners.org/personalizedmedicine/LMM) based upon segregation studies in affec ted families and its absence in the general population.

ARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP Laboratories RCV001810830 SCV001473661 pathogenic not provided 2020-05-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The TMC1 c.1714G>A; p.Asp572Asn variant (rs121908072) is reported in the literature segregating with disease in several families affected with autosomal dominant hearing loss (Hilgert 2009, Kurima 2002, Wang 2018, Wei 2014). This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 4102), but is absent from general population databases (Exome Variant Server, Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Additionally, another variant at this codon (c.1714G>C; p.Asp572His) has been reported in a large family affected with autosomal dominant hearing loss (Kitajiri 2007). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. References: Hilgert N et al.
