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]

Variant summary: The PCDH15 c.243G>A (p.Val81Val) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. 3/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. This variant was found in 81/121286 control chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0006678, which does not exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic PCDH15 variant (0.0031623). One clinical diagnostic laboratory has classified this variant as likely benign. The variant of interest has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals via publications and/or reputable databases. Taken together, this variant is classified as Likely Benign. -

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
