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 classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Pro1515fs variant in PCDH15 (NM_001142769.1) has been reported in 3 individuals with hear ing loss: two were homozygous, and one was compound heterozygous with another pa thogenic variant in PCDH15 and segregated in the compound heterozygous state wit h disease in another affected sibling (Pepermans 2014, LMM data). This variant has not been reported in large population studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift in one of the PCDH15 splicing isoforms, which alters the prot ein's amino acid sequence beginning at position 1515 and leads to a premature te rmination codon 4 amino acids downstream. This termination codon occurs within t he last exon of the isoform and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. It is unclear whether the PCDH15 isofo rm is required for hearing and whether the predicted truncated protein is functi onal. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clini cal significance of this variant is uncertain due to the uncertain functional im pact. -
