Genes affected
CLRN1 (HGNC:12605): (clarin 1) This gene encodes a protein that contains a cytosolic N-terminus, multiple helical transmembrane domains, and an endoplasmic reticulum membrane retention signal, TKGH, in the C-terminus. The encoded protein may be important in development and homeostasis of the inner ear and retina. Mutations within this gene have been associated with Usher syndrome type IIIa. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25743179, 23304067, 21310491, 15521980, 19753315, 29545425, 31963381, 29331482) -

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

This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 40 of the CLRN1 protein (p.Cys40Gly). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908143, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 15521980; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 4399). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The CLRN1 c.118T>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Cys40Gly. This variant has been reported in the homozygous and compound heterozygous states in multiple patients with Usher syndrome or retinitis pigmentosa (Aller et al. 2004. PubMed ID: 15521980; Guimaraes et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36162969; Whelan et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31963381; Table S1, Weisschuh et al. 2024. PubMed ID: 37734845; Table S4, Haer-Wigman et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28224992). A functional study that injected AAV2 vectors with the variant into the eyes of mice showed that the expression of mutant proteins led to dramatic loss in both retinal function and photoreceptors (Bolch et al. 2018. ARVO Meeting Abstract). This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has been interpreted as likely pathogenic and pathogenic by multiple laboratories in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/4399/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: CLRN1 c.118T>G (p.Cys40Gly) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-05 in 251462 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CLRN1 causing Usher Syndrome (8e-05 vs 0.0014), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.118T>G has been reported in the literature as biallelic homozygous or compound heterozygous genotypes in individuals affected with features of Usher Syndrome type 3 and as a heterozygous genotype in one case report with Unilateral retinitis pigmentosa (RP) (example, Aller_2004, Haer-Wigman_2017, Yong Sim_2018, Whelan_2020, Jiman_2020). These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (LP/P, n=4; VUS, n=5). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
