Recombinant Human Unconventional myosin-XV (MYO15A), partial

1. Some recessive MYO15A variants can cause postlingual onset of progressive partial deafness. PMID: 29482514
2. Study identified three novel mutations in MYO15A gene causing autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss in a Chinese family. PMID: 29849560
3. Six novel MYO15 mutations were identified in a family with nonsyndromic hearing loss. PMID: 29692870
4. MYO15A mutation was corrected by CRISPR/Cas9 system in the iPSCs and rescued the morphology and function of the derived hair cell-like cells. PMID: 26915297
5. Study reports 14 novel recessive mutations in MYO15A that might be a deafness-causing mutations. Also, in the inner ear, myosin 15 seems to be necessary both for the development and the long-term maintenance of stereocilia. PMID: 27375115
6. We identified in Moroccan deaf patients two mutations in PJVK and one mutation in MYO15A described for the first time in association with non-syndromic recessive hearing loss. PMID: 28964305
7. The MYO15A variant is a common cause of hearing loss in a northeastern Brazilian town. PMID: 27870113
8. Reconstruction of haplotype structure at MYO15A surrounding genomic regions indicated that the founder haplotype branched out in the past two to three centuries from a haplotype present worldwide. The MYO15A duplication emerges as the major cause of genetic hearing loss in Oman. PMID: 27734841
9. novel homozygous donor splice site mutation, c.4596 + 1G > A (IVS12 + 1G > A) was found in MYO15A gene PMID: 28390610
10. There are more than 39 deafness genes reported to cause non-syndromic hereditary hearing loss (HHL) in Iran, of which the most prevalent causative genes include GJB2, SLC26A4, MYO15A, and MYO7A. In addition, we highlight some of the more common genetic causes of syndromic HHL in Iran. [review] PMID: 27743438
11. Mutations in exon 2 of MYO15A may cause a less severe phenotype, facilitating the rapid identification of mutations in exon 2 among the 66 exons when linkage of less severe hearing loss to DFNB3 is detected PMID: 26810297
12. MYO15A mutations that affect domains other than the N-terminal domain, lead to profound sensorineural hearing loss throughout all frequencies. PMID: 26242193
13. MYO15A Mutation is associated with Autosomal Recessive Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss. PMID: 26308726
14. Mutations in the MYO15A gene are a notable cause of nonsyndromic hearing loss. PMID: 25792667
15. Data indicate nine novel mutations in the genes encoding myosin VI, myosin VIIA and myosin XVA in hearing-impaired individuals from Israeli Jewish and Palestinian Arab families. PMID: 24105371
16. MYO15A c.IVS25+3G>A and c.8375 T>C (p.V2792A) as the autosomal recessive hearing loss-causing mutations PMID: 24206587
17. study found two novel compound heterozygous mutations of MYO15A and 13 nonsynonymous variants in the coding exons of MYO15A from Korean exomes in families with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss PMID: 23865914
18. sequencing of the MYO15A gene led to identification of 7 previously unreported mutations, including 4 missense mutations, 1 nonsense mutation, and 2 deletions in different regions of the myosin-XV protein PMID: 22736430
19. the second exon of MYO15A from the DNA of all affected individuals ofHEARING LOSS IN A family revealed a duplication of Cytosine in a stretch of seven repetitive C nucleotides (c.1185dupC). PMID: 22245518
20. Estimation of the prevalence of homozygous MYO15A mutations in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness in Turkey as 0.062 (95% confidence interval is 0.020-0.105). PMID: 20642360
21. myosin XVA protein and mRNA are widely distributed in endocrine cells of the gut and pancreas PMID: 12114748
22. the large N-terminal extension of myosin XVA is required for hearing PMID: 17546645
23. The motor head domain of the human myosin XVa protein suggests that the Gly1831Val mutation inhibits the powerstroke by reducing backbone flexibility and weakening the hydrophobic interactions necessary for signal transmission to the converter domain. PMID: 17853461
24. These are the first MYO15A mutations reported to cause DFNB3 sensorineural hearing loss in the Iranian population. PMID: 19274735
25. Sequencing of MYO15A identified two novel homozygous mutations: a nonsense (c.4998C>A (p.C1666X) in exon 17 and a splice site mutation in intron 54 (c.9229 + 1G>A). A novel mutation of unknown significance, c.7395 + 3G>C, was also identified. PMID: 19309289
