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.

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 274 of the USH2A protein (p.Arg274Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs727504721, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with inherited retinal dystrophy and/or Usher syndrome (PMID: 27460420, 34948090, 36460718; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 179225). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging". The glutamine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Arg274 amino acid residue in USH2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 28041643; internal data). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The Arg274Gln varia nt in USH2A has not been reported in individuals with hearing loss or in large p opulation studies. The arginine (Arg) residue at position 274 is not well conser ved across species with cat and shrew having a glutamine (Gln) at that position. However, computational data (SIFT, PolyPhen2, AlignGVGD) provide conflicting pr edictions on the impact of the variant. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty; however based upon the conser vation data, we would lean towards a more likely benign role.
