Genes affected
CDH23 (HGNC:13733): (cadherin related 23) This gene is a member of the cadherin superfamily, whose genes encode calcium dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoproteins. The encoded protein is thought to be involved in stereocilia organization and hair bundle formation. The gene is located in a region containing the human deafness loci DFNB12 and USH1D. Usher syndrome 1D and nonsyndromic autosomal recessive deafness DFNB12 are caused by allelic mutations of this cadherin-like gene. Upregulation of this gene may also be associated with breast cancer. Alternative splice variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

Variant summary: CDH23 c.2878G>A (p.Glu960Lys) results in a conservative amino acid change in 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 0.003 in 245864 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.005 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 4 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 1.6 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CDH23 causing Usher Syndrome phenotype (0.0032), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of Non-Finnish European origin. Although reported in the literature, to our knowledge, no penetrant association of c.2878G>A in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories report a majority consensus as benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to rule this variant out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as benign. -
