Is MYO7A p.Pro2126fs (c.6377del) pathogenic?

MYO7A p.Pro2126fs (c.6377del) is classified Pathogenic in MYO7A (ClinVar, Multiple submitters, 4 submitters; last evaluated 2024-11-08). Very rare (popmax 0.00268%, afr); Associated with Usher syndrome type 1.

What condition is associated with MYO7A p.Pro2126fs (c.6377del)?

MYO7A p.Pro2126fs (c.6377del) is associated with Usher syndrome type 1, hearing loss, autosomal recessive (ClinVar).

How common is MYO7A p.Pro2126fs (c.6377del) in the general population?

MYO7A p.Pro2126fs (c.6377del) is very rare (popmax 0.00268%, afr) (gnomAD).

How is Usher syndrome inherited?

Typically Autosomal recessive (Orphanet). A genetic counselor can assess individual risk for a family.

Rarity supports pathogenicity (ACMG PM2); frequency above a disease-specific BA1/BS1 threshold argues against it. A variant frequent in one ancestry group can be near-absent in others, so a single global figure can mislead.
