Ser2196Thr in exon 34 of USH2A: This variant has now been identified in 4/191 (2 .1%) individuals tested in our laboratory none of whom had a pathogenic USH2A va riant and one case had only conductive hearing loss inconsistent with an USH2A e tiology. In addition, all 4 individuals were Black or Hispanic suggesting this v ariant is very common in this population. -
Variant summary: USH2A c.6587G>C (p.Ser2196Thr) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III domain (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0093 in 250942 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.13 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 127 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 12 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome phenotype (0.011), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.6587G>C in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
