Genes affected
PCDH15 (HGNC:14674): (protocadherin related 15) This gene is a member of the cadherin superfamily. Family members encode integral membrane proteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion. It plays an essential role in maintenance of normal retinal and cochlear function. Mutations in this gene result in hearing loss and Usher Syndrome Type IF (USH1F). Extensive alternative splicing resulting in multiple isoforms has been observed in the mouse ortholog. Similar alternatively spliced transcripts are inferred to occur in human, and additional variants are likely to occur. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

not provided Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 10, 2023In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 07, 2022This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 536 of the PCDH15 protein (p.Ala536Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs140516168, gnomAD 0.05%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PCDH15-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229135). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The proline amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesNov 17, 2017The p.Ala536Pro variant (rs140516168) has not been reported in the medical literature, gene specific variation databases, nor has it been previously identified by our laboratory. This variant is listed in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) with a frequency of 0.05 percent in the African population (identified on 13 out of 24,018 chromosomes) and has been reported to the ClinVar database as a variant of unknown significance (Variation ID: 229135). The alanine at position 536 is moderately conserved considering 12 species (Alamut v2.10) and computational analyses of the effects of the p.Ala536Pro variant on protein structure and function provide conflicting results (SIFT: tolerated, MutationTaster: disease causing, PolyPhen-2: probably damaging). Altogether, there is not enough evidence to classify the p.Ala536Pro variant with certainty. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 06, 2015Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Ala536Pro var iant in PCDH15 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss , but has been identified in 0.1% (11/10404) of African chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs140516168 ). The alanine (Ala) at position 536 is not conserved through species, with 2 ma mmals (dolphin and killer whale) having a proline (Pro) at this position, sugges ting that changes at this position may be tolerated. Additional computational pr ediction tools do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the pro tein. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Ala536Pro variant is uncertain, the conservation data suggest that it is more likely to be benign. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 02, 2023The c.1606G>C (p.A536P) alteration is located in exon 14 (coding exon 13) of the PCDH15 gene. This alteration results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1606, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 536 to be replaced by a proline (P). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
