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.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. -
