NM_206933.4:c.9958G>T
Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 14 ACMG points: 14P and 0B. PM2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_206933.4(USH2A):c.9958G>T(p.Gly3320Cys) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G3320S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Retinitis pigmentosa 39 Pathogenic:3
- -
The USH2A c.9958G>T variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PS1, PM2, PM3. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: USH2A c.9958G>T (p.Gly3320Cys) results in a non-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 damaging effect of the variant on protein function. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant weakens a 5' donor site and three predict the variant abolishes a 5' splicing donor site. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant affects mRNA splicing and results in partial or whole exon 50 skipping (Reurink_2022). The variant was absent in 251248 control chromosomes. c.9958G>T has been reported in the literature as homozygous or compound heterozygous genotype in individuals affected with clinical features of Usher Syndrome (Chen_2014, Sun_2018, Dan_2020, Liu_2021). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 25133613, 31960602, 33090715, 36362125, 29625443). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438037). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 3320 of the USH2A protein (p.Gly3320Cys). This variant also falls at the last nucleotide of exon 50, which is part of the consensus splice site for this exon. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with retinitis pigmentosa and Usher syndrome (PMID: 26338283, 29625443, 31960602, 32188678, 32675063). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438037). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Studies have shown that this missense change is associated with altered splicing resulting in multiple RNA products (PMID: 36362125). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
