Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_206933.4(USH2A):c.13576C>T(p.Arg4526*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000558 in 1,613,674 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R4526R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

The R4526X variant has been reported previously in association with Usher syndrome (Nakanishi et al., 2011). This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). In summary, we consider this variant to be pathogenic. -
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg4526*) in the USH2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in USH2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10729113, 10909849, 20507924, 25649381). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with USH2A-related conditions (PMID: 21593743, 28157192). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 438014). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
