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.

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 3789 of the USH2A protein (p.Ile3789Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs183979371, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with retinitis pigmentosa (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229615). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Ile3789Thr variant in USH2A has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss or Usher syndrome but has been identified in 4/11576 of Lati no chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinsti tute.org; dbSNP rs183979371); however this frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical signific ance of the p.Ile3789Thr variant is uncertain. -
