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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The Ala732Thr varia nt in PCDH14 has not been reported in individuals with hearing loss, but it has been identified in 0.04% (2/4404) African American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exom e Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs148162562). How ever, this frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. The alani ne (Ala) residue at position 732 is not conserved across species, with wallaby h aving a threonine (Thr), suggesting that the variant may be tolerated at that po sition. Yet, computational analyses (biochemical amino acid properties, AlignGVG D, PolyPhen2, and SIFT) do not provide strong support for or against an impact t o the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of this variant cannot be d etermined with certainty; however based upon low conservation at the Ala732 posi tion, we would lean towards a more likely benign role. -
