Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_206933.4(USH2A):c.3045C>G(p.His1015Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 1,613,178 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. H1015Y) has been classified as Likely benign.

This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1015 of the USH2A protein (p.His1015Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs541918040, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 26927203, 31877679). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179958). 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 with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26927203, 31877679) -
USH2A: PM2, BP4 -
The p.His1015Gln variant (rs541918040) has been previously observed once in a cohort of non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa patients (Pierrache 2016); however, no specific clinical or segregation details were proved. It is listed in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) browser with an overall frequency of 0.009% (identified in 24 out of 276,088 chromosomes). The histidine at codon 1015 is weakly conserved considering 12 species (Alamut software v2.9), and computational analyses return mixed results regarding the effect of this variant on USH2A protein structure/function (SIFT: tolerated, PolyPhen2: benign, and Mutation Taster: disease causing). Taken together, based on the available information, the clinical significance of the p.His1015Gln variant cannot be determined with certainty. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

not specified Uncertain:2
The His1015Gln variant in USH2A has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss and was absent from large population studies. Computational pr ediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or ag ainst an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the His 1015Gln variant is uncertain. -
Variant summary: USH2A c.3045C>G (p.His1015Gln) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Laminin-type EGF domain (IPR002049) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 250370 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (8.8e-05 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3045C>G has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype (second allele not specified and/or with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity) in individuals with non-syndromic or sporadic forms of Retinitis Pigmentosa (example, Pierrache_2016, Karali_2019, Molina-Ramirez_2020, Bahena_2022) or as a compound heterozygous genotype with another pathogenic variant in at-least one case with Retinitis Pigmentosa (example, Haer-Wigman_2017). These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. At-least one of the cases ascertained above reported this variant as a heterozygous genotype inherited along with a homozygous co-occurring pathogenic variant(s) in the IDUA gene, supporting the diagnosis of MPS 1S or Scheie syndrome, that can have phenotypic overlap with hearing impairment and retinal degeneration (IDUA c.956C>T, p.Ala319Val). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28224992, 26927203, 31877679, 32176120, 30902645, 34148116). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179958). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
