Identification of a novel MYO1D variant associated with laterality defects,congenital heart diseases,and sperm defects in humans

The establishment of left-right asymmetry is a fundamental process in animal development.Interference with this process leads to a range of disorders collectively known as laterality defects,which manifest as abnormal arrangements of visceral organs.Among patients with laterality defects,congenital heart diseases(CHD)are prevalent.Through multiple model organisms,extant research has established that myosin-Id(MYO1D)deficiency causes laterality defects.This study investigated over a hundred cases and identified a novel biallelic variant of MYO1D(NM_015194:c.1531G>A;p.D511N)in a consanguineous family with complex CHD and laterality defects.Further examination of the proband revealed asthenoteratozoospermia and shortened sperm.Afterward,the effects of the D511N variant and another known MYO1D variant(NM_015194:c.2293C>T;p.P765S)were assessed.The assessment showed that both enhance the interaction with β-actin and SPAG6.Overall,this study revealed the genetic heterogeneity of this rare disease and found that MYO1D variants are correlated with laterality defects and CHD in humans.Furthermore,this research established a connection between sperm defects and MYO1D variants.It offers guidance for exploring infertility and reproductive health concerns.The findings provide a critical basis for advancing personalized medicine and genetic counseling.
