Usher syndrome type 2A Pathogenic:4
- -
- -
Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with retinitis pigmentosa 39 (MIM#613809) and type 2A Usher syndrome (MIM#276901). (I) 0106 - This gene is associated with autosomal recessive disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from proline to leucine. (I) 0252 - This variant is homozygous. (I) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (v3: 17 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0604 - Variant is not located in an established domain, motif, hotspot or informative constraint region. (I) 0705 - No comparable missense variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. It has been reported in many individuals with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa or Usher syndrome (PMIDs: 22004887, 25472526, 29899460, 30081015, 32098976). It has also been reported as likely pathogenic/pathogenic in ClinVar and Deafness Variation Database. (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

not provided Pathogenic:3
This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 4818 of the USH2A protein (p.Pro4818Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs143344549, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome or retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 17085681, 22004887, 25472526, 29899460). 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: 504509). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt USH2A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); 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: 37322672, 31964843, 17085681, 30081015, 19683999, 20507924, 20591486, 25472526, 29899460, 30245926, 31589614, 34426522, 31980526, 31429209, 22004887) -
Retinitis pigmentosa 39 Pathogenic:3
- -
The USH2A c.14453C>T variant was identified in an individual with retinitis pigmentosa with a presumed recessive inheritance pattern. Through a review of available evidence we were able to apply the following criteria: PM2, PM3, PP1-M. Based on this evidence we have classified this variant as Likely Pathogenic. -

Usher syndrome Pathogenic:1
Variant summary: USH2A c.14453C>T (p.Pro4818Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence, altering a highly conserved residue (HGMD). 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 6.4e-05 in 251372 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (6.4e-05 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.14453C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Retinitis Pigmentosa or Usher Syndrome (Aller_2006, Garcia-Garcia_2011, Huang_2018, Jaijo_2010, Jauregui_2020, Zhao_2015), and several patients were reported as compound heterozygous with other (likely) pathogenic variants. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven subitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and all laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
The p.Pro4818Leu variant in USH2A has been reported in 5 individuals with Usher syndrome and 1 individual with retinitis pigmentosa (Aller 2006, Garcia-Garcia 2 011, Jaijo 2010, McGee 2010, Zhao 2015). Two individuals with Usher syndrome wer e confirmed to have a different truncating variant affecting the other copy of U SH2A. This variant has been identified in several populations by the Exome Aggre gation Consortium with the highest frequency of 3/16510 in South Asian chromosom es (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs143344549). However, this is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. Computational pr ediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Pro4818Leu variant m ay impact the protein. In summary, although additional studies are required to f ully establish its clinical significance, this variant is likely pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome based on its occurrence in trans with another pathogenic variant in USH2A in multiple unrelated affected individuals. -

USH2A-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The USH2A c.14453C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Pro4818Leu. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a protein-truncating variant in patients who presented with Usher syndrome or retinitis pigmentosa (see for example, family FRP35, Aller et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 17085681; patient RP107, Table 2, Zhao et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25472526; patient RP690M, Table 2, Garcia-Garcia et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22004887). This variant is reported in 0.013% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
