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 testingInvitaeJan 17, 2024This 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesFeb 22, 2023The 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. -
