Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM5PP3_ModeratePP5
The NM_206933.4(USH2A):c.3408T>A(p.Ser1136Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000372 in 1,613,618 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S1136N) has been classified as Pathogenic.

The USH2A c.3408T>A; p.Ser1136Arg variant, to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature, gene specific variation databases, nor has it been previously identified by our laboratory. However, another variant affecting the same codon, Ser1136Asn, was found in a patient with Usher syndrome (Le Quesne Stabej 2012). This variant is listed in the genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) with an overall population frequency of 0.0004% (identified on 1 out of 245,946 chromosomes) and is classified as likely pathogenic in ClinVar (ID: 418534). The serine at position 1136 is moderately conserved, considering 12 species, and computational analyses of the effects of the p.Ser1136Arg variant on protein structure and function make conflicting predictions (SIFT: tolerated, PolyPhen-2: probably damaging). Although the available information suggests that it may be pathogenic, the clinical significance of the p.Ser1136Arg variant cannot be determined with certainty. -
Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; A different missense change at this residue (S1136N) has been classified as likely pathogenic by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert Panel (SCV000840537.3; Oza et al., 2018); Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30311386) -
This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1136 of the USH2A protein (p.Ser1136Arg). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of USH2A-related conditions (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418534). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt USH2A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Ser1136 amino acid residue in USH2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 22135276, 25991456, 27460420, 27957503, 28512305, 30718709). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Usher syndrome Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: USH2A c.3408T>A (p.Ser1136Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III domain (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251178 control chromosomes. c.3408T>A has been observed in individuals affected with clinical features of Usher Syndrome and related disorders, including retinitis pigmentosa and/or hearing loss (internal data). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. However, a different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic (c.3407G>A, p.Ser1136Asn), supporting the critical relevance of codon 1136 to USH2A protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 418534). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
The p.Ser1136Arg variant in USH2A has been reported in 1 infant with congenital mild to moderate hearing loss who was compound heterozygous for a second USH2A v ariant, and the two variants segregated in an affected sibling. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 418534). Another amino acid change at the same position has been reported in 1 individual with Usher syndrome who was compound heterozygous for a second pathogenic USH2A variant (Le Quesne Stabe j 2012, Bonnet 2016). The p.Ser1136Arg variant has been identified in 1/33578 La tino chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broad institute.org/; dbSNP rs1064793287). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessiv e carrier frequency. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses su ggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not p redictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional stu dies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2, PM5, PP3, PM3_Supporting. -
