Genes affected
USH1C (HGNC:12597): (USH1 protein network component harmonin) This gene encodes a scaffold protein that functions in the assembly of Usher protein complexes. The protein contains PDZ domains, a coiled-coil region with a bipartite nuclear localization signal and a PEST degradation sequence. Defects in this gene are the cause of Usher syndrome type 1C and non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal recessive type 18. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

The c.497-3C>A variant in USH1C has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss or Usher syndrome. Data from large population studies are insu fficient to assess the frequency of this variant in the general population. This variant is located in the 3' splice region. Computational tools suggest a possi ble impact to splicing. However, this information is not predictive enough to de termine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance of the c.497-3C>A v ariant is uncertain.

This sequence change falls in intron 5 of the USH1C gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the USH1C protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with USH1C-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 505102). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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.
