Summary

EYA1 (EYA transcriptional coactivator and phosphatase 1, HGNC:3519) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 8q13.3, encoding Protein phosphatase EYA1 (Q99502). Functions both as protein phosphatase and as transcriptional coactivator for SIX1, and probably also for SIX2, SIX4 and SIX5. It is haploinsufficient (ClinGen: sufficient evidence).

This gene encodes a member of the eyes absent (EYA) family of proteins. The encoded protein may play a role in the developing kidney, branchial arches, eye, and ear. Mutations of this gene have been associated with branchiootorenal dysplasia syndrome, branchiootic syndrome, and sporadic cases of congenital cataracts and ocular anterior segment anomalies. A similar protein in mice can act as a transcriptional activator. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene.

Function. Functions both as protein phosphatase and as transcriptional coactivator for SIX1, and probably also for SIX2, SIX4 and SIX5. Tyrosine phosphatase that dephosphorylates ‘Tyr-142’ of histone H2AX (H2AXY142ph) and promotes efficient DNA repair via the recruitment of DNA repair complexes containing MDC1. ‘Tyr-142’ phosphorylation of histone H2AX plays a central role in DNA repair and acts as a mark that distinguishes between apoptotic and repair responses to genotoxic stress. Its function as histone phosphatase may contribute to its function in transcription regulation during organogenesis. Also has phosphatase activity with proteins phosphorylated on Ser and Thr residues (in vitro). Required for normal embryonic development of the craniofacial and trunk skeleton, kidneys and ears. Together with SIX1, it plays an important role in hypaxial muscle development; in this it is functionally redundant with EYA2.

Subunit / interactions. Probably interacts with SIX2, SIX4 and SIX5. Interacts with H2AX in response to DNA damage. Interacts with SIX3; promotes EYA1 translocation to the nucleus.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus.

Tissue specificity. In the embryo, highly expressed in kidney with lower levels in brain. Weakly expressed in lung. In the adult, highly expressed in heart and skeletal muscle. Weakly expressed in brain and liver. No expression in eye or kidney.

Post-translational modifications. Sumoylated with SUMO1.

Disease relevance. Branchiootorenal syndrome 1 (BOR1) [MIM:113650] A syndrome characterized by branchial cleft fistulas or cysts, sensorineural and/or conductive hearing loss, pre-auricular pits, structural defects of the outer, middle or inner ear, and renal malformations. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Otofaciocervical syndrome 1 (OTFCS1) [MIM:166780] A disorder characterized by facial dysmorphism, cup-shaped low-set ears, preauricular fistulas, hearing loss, branchial defects, skeletal anomalies including vertebral defects, low-set clavicles, winged scapulae, sloping shoulders, and mild intellectual disability. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Branchiootic syndrome 1 (BOS1) [MIM:602588] A syndrome characterized by usually bilateral branchial cleft fistulas or cysts, sensorineural and/or conductive hearing loss, pre-auricular pits, and structural defects of the outer, middle or inner ear. Otic defects include malformed and hypoplastic pinnae, a narrowed external ear canal, bulbous internal auditory canal, stapes fixation, malformed and hypoplastic cochlea. Branchial and otic anomalies overlap with those seen in individuals with the branchiootorenal syndrome. However renal anomalies are absent in branchiootic syndrome patients. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Anterior segment anomalies with or without cataract (ASA) [MIM:602588] A disease characterized by various types of developmental eye anomalies, in the absence of other abnormalities. The phenotypic spectrum of anterior segment anomalies include central corneal opacity, Peters anomaly, and bilateral persistence of the pupillary membrane. Some patients have cataract. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Cofactor. Binds 1 Mg(2+) ion per subunit.
