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]

The p.Arg764Cys variant in PCDH15 has been previously identified by our laborato ry in two individuals with hearing loss; however a variant affecting the remaini ng copy of PCDH15 was not identified in either of them. This variant has been i dentified in 50/66626 (0.08%) of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation C onsortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs192813057). Although th is variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high en ough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational prediction tools and conservat ion analyses do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the prote in. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Arg764Cys variant is uncertai n. -

Variant summary: PCDH15 c.2290C>T (p.Arg764Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00037 in 250880 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in PCDH15 causing Usher Syndrome Type 1F (0.00037 vs 0.0032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.2290C>T in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome Type 1F and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Six clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified as VUS (n=5) and Benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
