Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PP1_ModeratePM2PVS1PP4PM3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The allele frequency of the p.Cys1447GlnfsX29 variant in the USH2A gene is 0.0009% (1/111250) of European (Non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), which is a low enough frequency to award PM2 based on the thresholds defined by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Expert Panel for autosomal recessive hearing loss (PM2). The p.Cys1447GlnfsX29 variant is predicted to cause a premature stop codon in biologically-relevant-exon 20 of 72 that leads to an absent protein in a gene in which loss-of-function is an established mechanism (PVS1). This variant has been detected as compound heterozygous with p.Cys759Phe or p.Glu767SerfsX21 in six Usher syndrome probands, and as homozygous in eight Usher syndrome probands (PM3_VeryStrong; PMID:9624053, 15325563, 18641288, 18665195, 20440071). The p.Cys1447GlnfsX29 variant in USH2A has been reported to segregate with hearing loss in at least 2 family members (PP1_Moderate; PMID:20440071, 9624053). At least one patient with a variant in this gene displayed features of mild to severe hearing loss and retinitis pigmentosa (PP4; PMID:9624053, 15325563, 18641288, 18665195, 20440071). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the Hearing Loss Expert Panel: PM2, PVS1, PM3_VeryStrong, PP1_Moderate, PP4.

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.
