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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteOct 09, 2024Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with autosomal recessive deafness 18A (MIM#602092) and Usher syndrome, type 1C (MIM#276904). Dominant negative is a suggested mechanism for rare autosomal dominant non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL) (PMID: 31858762). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. A single, large family with a heterozygous missense variant has been reported with autosomal dominant NSHL (PMID: 31858762). (I) 0211 - Canonical splice site variant without proven consequence on splicing (no functional evidence available). (SP) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.01 for a recessive condition (6 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0311 - Multiple alternative nucleotide changes at the same canonical splice site are present in gnomAD (v3) (highest allele count: 23 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SB) 0505 - Abnormal splicing is predicted by in silico tools and affected nucleotide is highly conserved. (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple clinical laboratories in ClinVar and has been observed as compound heterozygous and homozygous in individuals with Usher syndrome and non-syndromic hearing loss (PMIDs: 24416283, 22135276, 11139240).

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Nov 11, 2021NM_005709.3(USH1C):c.496+1G>A is a canonical splice variant classified as pathogenic in the context of USH1C-related disorders. c.496+1G>A has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 24416283, 27743452, 11139240). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. c.496+1G>A has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD NFE 0.004%). In summary, NM_005709.3(USH1C):c.496+1G>A is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 06, 2024This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 5 of the USH1C gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in USH1C are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10973247, 17407589, 20301442, 21203349). This variant is present in population databases (rs138138689, gnomAD 0.006%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with Usher syndrome type I and non-syndromic hearing loss (PMID: 11139240, 22135276, 24416283, 27743452). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371732). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
