Associated with Deafness, autosomal dominant 80 #619274 (AD) in OMIM (as well as a renal phenotype)
PMID: 29955957 - Schrauwen et al 2018 - identified 2 de novo loss-of-function variants in GREB1L [c.4368G>T;p.(Glu1410fs) and c.982C>T;p.(Arg328*)] using trio exome sequencing in two unrelated affected subjects with absent cochleae and eighth cranial nerve malformations.
PMID: 32585897 - Schrauwen et al 2020 - report a Pakistani family with 3 individuals with congenital profound HI that segregates a heterozygous missense variant (c.848A>G, p.(Asn283Ser) in GREB1L and an additional case from an Egyptian family with bilateral cochlear and cochlear nerve aplasia with a GREB1L missense variant (c.347C>T, p.(Thr116Ile) in which the daughter was affected but the carrier mother was not. Following ACMG guidelines the p.(Asn283Ser variant was classified as pathogenic and the p.(Thr116Ile) classified as a VUS.
Note additional cases also reported with both a renal and hearing loss phenotype e.g.
PMID: 29100090 - Sanna-Cherchi et al 2017 - a patient (AC7) with a c.4964T>C, p.Ile1655Thr variant in GREB1L has both renal agenesis and right neurosensorial hypoacusia. The variant was inherited from the father.Created: 9 Jun 2021, 10:15 p.m. | Last Modified: 9 Jun 2021, 10:15 p.m.

DFNA80 is characterized by nonsyndromic congenital deafness associated with absent or malformed cochleae and eighth cranial nerves.
Four unrelated families reported, no comment on a renal phenotype. Note variants in this gene are also associated with renal agenesis.
