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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 12, 2023This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 778 of the USH2A protein (p.Asp778Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs142898216, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome or non-syndromic retinal disease (PMID: 17085681, 25649381, 26969326; Invitae). 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: 178583). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt USH2A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesApr 13, 2021The USH2A c.2332G>T; p.Asp778Tyr variant (rs142898216; ClinVar Variation ID: 178583) has been previously observed in patients with clinical features of Usher syndrome (US) or retinitis pigmentosa (RP). One patient with US found to be homozygous for this variant, while one US and one RP patient were found to carry this variant in a presumed transheterozygous configuration with other established pathogenic variants in USH2A (Aller 2006, Lenassi 2015, Sloan-Heggen 2016). This variants is rare in the general population, though it is found at higher frequencies is African Americans in in the Genome Aggregation Database (0.056% MAF; 14 out of 24,968 chromosomes, including 1 homozygous individual). The aspartic acid at codon 778 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.598). Based on the available information, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. References: Aller et al.

Usher syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpDec 14, 2021Variant summary: USH2A c.2332G>T (p.Asp778Tyr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Laminin-type EGF domain (IPR002049) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.2e-05 in 250894 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. c.2332G>T has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous individuals affected with Usher Syndrome or retinal disease (examples: Aller_2006, Sloan-Heggen_2016, Zenteno_2019, and McGowan_2020), as well as a homozygous individual with normal hearing and nyctalopia (Lenassi_2015). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as pathogenic (n=3) and as a variant of uncertain significance (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineNov 07, 2014Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Asp778Tyr variant in USH2A has been reported in 1 Spanish individual with Usher syndrome who also carried a known pathogenic variant (Aller 2006). This variant has been identified in 0.05% (2/4406) of African American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs142898216); howev er this frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computationa l prediction tools suggest that the p.Asp778Tyr variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical signi ficance of the p.Asp778Tyr variant is uncertain. -
Usher syndrome type 2A Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Nov 03, 2021NM_206933.2(USH2A):c.2332G>T(D778Y) is a missense variant classified as a variant of uncertain significance in the context of USH2A-related disorders. D778Y has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 31736247, 25649381, 17085681, 26969326). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. D778Y has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: AFR 0.05%). In summary, there is insufficient evidence to classify NM_206933.2(USH2A):c.2332G>T(D778Y) as pathogenic or benign. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
