RCV003490900 | SCV004241513 | likely pathogenic | Nonsyndromic genetic hearing loss | 2023-12-14 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: OTOF c.4228-1G>T is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: four predict the variant abolishes a 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251458 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4228-1G>T in individuals affected with Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss And Deafness, Type 9 and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. No submitters have reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. |
