Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_206933.4(USH2A):c.6967C>T(p.Arg2323*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000105 in 1,613,414 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R2323R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26927203, 33302505, 35266249, 30459346, 29625443) -
This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg2323*) 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 (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 26927203, 29625443). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 558501). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The USH2A c.6967C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg2323*). This variant has been reported in individuals with Usher syndrome or non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa (Pierrache et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26927203; Table S3 in Sun et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29625443; Martín-Sánchez et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 33302505). This variant is reported in 0.0033% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-216138812-G-A). Nonsense variants in USH2A are expected to be pathogenic, and this variant has been classified as pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar database (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/558501). Given all the evidence, we interpret c.6967C>T (p.Arg2323*) as pathogenic. -
