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.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 07, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg4935*) in the USH2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in USH2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10729113, 10909849, 20507924, 25649381). This variant is present in population databases (rs146733615, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with Usher syndrome (PMID: 17405132, 29142287). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 177760). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Rare genetic deafness Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineSep 15, 2016The p.Arg4935X variant in USH2A has been previously reported in more than nine i ndividuals with either Usher syndrome type II or retinitis pigmentosa (Baux 2007 , Ebermann 2009, Sandberg 2008, McGee 2010, Besnard 2013, LMM data). This varia nt has been also identified in 2/66718 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggrega tion Consortium (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/; dpSNP rs146733615). Although t his variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a carrier frequency of a recessive disorder. This nonsens e variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 4935, which is pred icted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, this variant meets c riteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome. -

USH2A-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 08, 2024The USH2A c.14803C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg4935*). This variant has been reported many times in individuals with Usher syndrome (see for examples: Baux et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17405132; Supplemental table, Pierrache et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26927203; Table S2, Weisschuh et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32531858). This variant is reported in 0.0026% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in USH2A are expected to be pathogenic. Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
