NM_033056.4:c.1456G>A
Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2
The NM_033056.4(PCDH15):c.1456G>A(p.Gly486Ser) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000342 in 1,461,652 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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. G486R) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Usher syndrome type 1F    Uncertain:2 
The p.Gly486Ser variant in PCDH15 has been reported in 1 individual with Usher syndrome type 1F (PMID: 27610647) and has been identified in 0.007% (2/30612) of South Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs1196401374). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 558525) and has been interpreted as a variant of uncertain significance by Counsyl. Computational prediction tools and conservation analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Gly486Ser variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PM2_supporting (Richards 2015). -

not specified    Uncertain:1 
Variant summary: PCDH15 c.1456G>A (p.Gly486Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Cadherin-like domain (IPR002126) 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 8e-06 in 251298 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1456G>A has been reported in the literature as a non-informative genotype (second allele and/or zygosity not specified) in a cohort of individuals with hearing loss (example, Chen_2016). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Usher Syndrome Type 1F. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 27610647). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558525). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
