Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Lineage: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo
Also known as: TMHS; DFNB67; dJ510O8.8
Summary: This gene is a member of the lipoma HMGIC fusion partner (LHFP) gene family, which is a subset of the superfamily of tetraspan transmembrane protein encoding genes. Mutations in this gene result in deafness in humans, and a mutation in a similar gene in mice results in deafness and vestibular dysfunction with severe degeneration of the organ of Corti. It is proposed to function in hair bundle morphogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Deafness mutation D572N of TMC1 destabilizes TMC1 expression by disrupting LHFPL5 binding.

In 3 families with hearing impairment, whole exome sequencing revealed 3 novel variants in KCNQ4, LHFPL5 and COCH genes. The homozygous variant (c.34A>T, p.K12X) was identified in the LHFPL5 gene (DFNB67) which encodes a transmembrane protein.

A novel LHFPL5 mutation is identified in two members of a family with hereditary hearing loss.

Four patients from two different families from both Reunion Island and mainland France, were compound heterozygous: c.185delT p.(Phe62Serfs*23) and c.472C > T p.(Arg158Trp). The phenotype observed in our patients completely mimics the hurry-scurry (hscy) murine Tmhs knock-out model. The recurrent occurrence of same LHFPL5 variant in Reunion Island is attributed to common ancestor couple born in 1693.
Title: High prevalence of congenital deafness on Reunion Island is due to a founder variant of LHFPL5.
two novel variants in LHFPL5, including a unique 3'-UTR splice site variant that is predicted to impact pre-mRNA splicing and regulation through an extended 3'-UTR.
Title: Novel missense and 3'-UTR splice site variants in LHFPL5 cause autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing impairment.
These findings provide a novel function of LHFPL2 and a novel genetic basis for distal reproductive tract development; they also emphasize the importance of an additional merging phase for proper reproductive tract development.

Five microsatellites in the 6p21.31e22.3 region and screening of the LHFPL5 gene by DNA heteroduplex analysis revealed a novel mutation (c.89dup) in one out of 129 unrelated Tunisian families with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
