Evidence submitted by expert panel
Hearing Loss VCEP
The c.2751dup (p.Gln918fs) frameshift variant in MYO6 is predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant exon 26 of 35 total exons, leading to a truncated or absent protein in a gene where loss of function is an established mechanism of autosomal dominant hearing loss (PVS1; PMID: 30192042). The highest minor allele frequency in gnomAD v.2.1.1 was 0.048% (52/109484) of European (non-Finnish) population, but was noted to occur in a low complexity region where variant quality was dubious, so BS1 was not applied. It was observed in 2 probands with moderate sensorineural hearing loss, meeting PS4_Supporting (PMID: 25080041, 33297549). In summary, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied as specified by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Expert Panel: PVS1, PS4_Supporting (ClinGen Hearing Loss VCEP specifications version 2; 7/25/2023).
Met criteria codes
PVS1
Occurs in exon 26/35, leading to a truncated protein in a gene where loss of function is an established mechanism of disease. This exon is present in 7/8 transcripts in GTEx and is biologically expressed.

PS4
Observed in 2 probands with moderate sensorineural hearing loss. PS4_Supporting was applied for this variant despite its higher than expected frequency in the general population to resolve the conflicting evidence (PMID: 25080041, 33297549). It was also observed homozygous in 2 Emirati individuals with HL (PMID: 36056583).
