Genes affected

USH2A (HGNC:12601): (usherin) This gene encodes a protein that contains laminin EGF motifs, a pentaxin domain, and many fibronectin type III motifs. The protein is found in the basement membrane, and may be important in development and homeostasis of the inner ear and retina. Mutations within this gene have been associated with Usher syndrome type IIa and retinitis pigmentosa. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The Arg4121His variant in USH2A has not been reported in the literature nor prev iously identified by our laboratory. Computational analyses (biochemical amino a cid properties, conservation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide str ong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical si gnificance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.12362G>A (p.R4121H) alteration is located in exon 63 (coding exon 62) of the USH2A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 12362, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 4121 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 4121 of the USH2A protein (p.Arg4121His). This variant is present in population databases (rs397517980, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with USH2A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 48398). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt USH2A protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
