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.

NM_206933.2(USH2A):c.14017T>C(Y4673H) is a missense variant classified as a variant of uncertain significance in the context of USH2A-related disorders. Y4673H has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 26992781, 25373420, 24853665, 26927203, 23967202). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. Y4673H has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: EAS 0.02%). In summary, there is insufficient evidence to classify NM_206933.2(USH2A):c.14017T>C(Y4673H) as pathogenic or benign. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening.

Variant summary: USH2A c.14017T>C (p.Tyr4673His) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Two of four in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 251322 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.14017T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with deafness, Retinitis Pigmentosa, or retinal degeneration. These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Both laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 4673 of the USH2A protein (p.Tyr4673His). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with USH2A-related conditions (PMID: 25373420, 26992781, 30948794, 31054281, 32188678, 32675063, 32893482, 33090715). 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: 557599). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

The USH2A c.14017T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Tyr4673His. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with symptoms of Usher syndrome (see for example, Miyagawa et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23967202; Chen et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32893482; Liu et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33090715). This variant is reported in 0.015% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
