Likely Pathogenic for Usher syndrome. Applied ACMG criteria (verbatim):
PM2_Supporting PP1_Moderate PM3_Strong PP3 PP4
Curation rationale (ClinGen, verbatim)
The variant NM_000260.4:c.6326C>T in MYO7A is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of threonine by isoleucine at amino acid 2109 (p.Thr2109Ile). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v2.1.1 is 0.00006 (8/128408 alleles, 0 homozygotes) for the European (Non-Finnish) population, which meets PM2_supporting criteria. The REVEL computational prediction analysis tool produced a score of 0.821, meeting PP3 criteria. This variant has been reported in two unrelated probands, both with Usher syndrome (PP4; SCV000199631.4). In addition, both probands had an additional MYO7A pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant in trans, meeting PM3_Strong criteria. Finally, the variant was shown to segregate with two affected family members (PP1_Moderate). In summary, the variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for AR Usher syndrome. ACMG/AMP criteria met, as specified by the ClinGen Hearing Loss VCEP: PM2_supporting, PP3, PP4, PM3_Strong, PP1_Moderate (ClinGen Hearing Loss VCEP specifications version 2; 1/18/2023).

AlphaMissense carries the ACMG weight for missense; REVEL and SaProt are independent agreement signals.
Population frequency

|---|---|---|
| European (non-Finnish)grpmax | 0.00636% | 15,731 |

| Remaining individualsnot grpmax-eligible | 0.0016% | 62,462 |
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.
