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.

USH2A-AS1 (HGNC:40606): (USH2A antisense RNA 1)

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 21, 2023Variant summary: USH2A c.4251+1delG is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Three predict the variant abolishes a canonical 5' splicing donor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant was absent in 250690 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.4251+1delG in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: both classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMay 20, 2020For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Loss-of-function variants in USH2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10729113, 10909849, 20507924, 25649381). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with USH2A-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1417Hisfs*15) in the USH2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
