DISEASE | Note=A chromosomal aberration disrupting PDZD7 has been found in patients with non-syndromic sensorineural deafness. Translocation t(10;11),t(10;11). Defects in PDZD7 are a cause of Usher syndrome type 2C (USH2C) [MIM:605472]. USH is a genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by the association of retinitis pigmentosa with sensorineural deafness. Age at onset and differences in auditory and vestibular function distinguish Usher syndrome type 1 (USH1), Usher syndrome type 2 (USH2) and Usher syndrome type 3 (USH3). USH2 is characterized by congenital mild hearing impairment with normal vestibular responses. Note=PDZD7 mutations have been found in combination with mutations in USH2A and GPR98 in patients affected by Usher syndrome, suggesting a role as contributor to digenic Usher syndrome or a modifier of retinal disease expression. |

Background Descriptions | PDZK7, also known as PDZD7, is a 517 amino acid protein that contains two PDZ (DHR) domains. Encoded by a gene that maps to human chromosome 10q24.31, PDZK7 is conserved in dog, mouse and rat, and exists as three alternatively spliced isoforms. PDZK7 is known to interact with Harmonin, MASS1, USH1G and Usherin. Localizing to nucleus, PDZK7 is expressed in retinal pigment epithelium and inner ear. Biallelic inactivation of PDZK7 can cause non-syndromic hearing impairment and chromosomal aberrations, which are linked to non-syndromic sensorineural deafness. PDZK7 mutations are also linked to Usher syndrome, which is characterized by retinitis pigmentosa and sensorineural deafness, and Alzheimer disease. The gene that encodes PDZK7 maps to human chromosome 10q24.31. |
