Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 1 ACMG points: 2P and 1B. PM3_SupportingPP3BS1_Supporting

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.6233C>G (p.Pro2078Arg) variant in USH2A was present in 0.4% (lower bound of the 95% CI of 50/10070) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles in gnomAD v4. However, the next highest population frequency (aside from in the "remaining" group in gnomAD) was 0.002458% (29/1179812) of non-Finnish European alleles in gnomAD v4. Because this variant is likely a founder population in the AJ population, BS1 was downgraded to BS1_Supporting. The p.Pro2078Arg variant was detected in one proband with retinitis pigmentosa and the pathogenic variant in USH2A c.12067-2A>G but phase unknown (PM3_Supporting; Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Center internal data, ClinVar SCV001161352.1, PMID:31456290). It has also been seen in at least 8 probands without a second variant identified in USH2A (Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Invitae internal data, GeneDx, ClinVar SCV000201902.5, SCV001068267.2, SCV005078111.1). The REVEL computational prediction tool produced a score of 0.702, which is above the threshold necessary to apply PP3. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the Hearing Loss Expert Panel: BS1_Supporting, PM3_Supporting, PP3 (ClinGen Hearing Loss VCEP specifications version 2; 1.15.2025).

Genes affected
USH2A (HGNC:12601): (usherin) This gene encodes a protein that contains laminin EGF motifs, a pentaxin domain, and many fibronectin type III motifs. The protein is found in the basement membrane, and may be important in development and homeostasis of the inner ear and retina. Mutations within this gene have been associated with Usher syndrome type IIa and retinitis pigmentosa. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

The Pro2078Arg variant in USH2A has not been reported in individuals with hearin g loss, but has been identified in 0.02% (1/4406) of African American chromosome s by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSN P rs150230450). Computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, conse rvation, AlignGVGD, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) suggest that the Pro2078Arg variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determi ne pathogenicity. In summary, additional data is needed to determine the clinica l significance of this variant. -
