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 submitter	clinical testing	Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute	May 01, 2020	Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.1.1, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss-of-function is a known mechanism of disease for this gene. (N) 0106 - This gene is known to be associated with autosomal recessive disease. (N) 0201 - Variant is predicted to cause nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and loss of protein (exon 22 of 72). (P) 0251 - Variant is heterozygous. (N) 0304 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.01 for a recessive condition (4 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (P) 0701 - Comparable variants have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. More than 10 NMD-predicted variants have been reported as likely pathogenic/pathogenic (ClinVar). (P) 0801 - Strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in unrelated patients with Usher syndrome and retinitis pigmentosa (PMIDs: 17405132, 26352687, 29899460), and as pathogenic in ClinVar. (P) 1206 - Variant is paternally inherited. (N) Legend: (P) - Pathogenic, (N) - Neutral, (B) - Benign -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1549*) 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 (rs199679165, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome or retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 26352687, 28559085, 29899460). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 504513). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg1549X variant in USH2A has been previously reported in over 10 individu als with Usher syndrome, most of whom were homozygous or compound heterozygous w ith a second pathogenic USH2A variant (Baux 2007, Bonnet 2016, Garcia-Garcia 201 1, Le Quesne Stabej 2012, Maranhao 2015, McGee 2010, Sandberg 2008, Zhao 2015). This variant has been identified in 2/111610 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/; dbSNP rs199679 165). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequen cy is low enough to be consistent with a carrier frequency for autosomal recessi ve Usher syndrome. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1549, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. L oss of function of the USH2A gene is an established disease mechanism in autosom al recessive Usher syndrome. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be clas sified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome, based on the previo usly reported individuals with Usher syndrome, a low frequency in the general po pulation, and predicted impact to the protein. -

The USH2A c.4645C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1549*). This variant has been reported many times in individuals with Usher syndrome or early onset retinal degeneration (see for examples: Baux et al. 2007. PubMed ID: 17405132; Maranhao et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26352687; Sloan-Heggen et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26969326; Garcia-Garcia et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22004887). This variant is reported in 0.0046% of alleles in individuals of European (Finnish) descent in gnomAD. Nonsense variants in USH2A are an established mechanism of disease. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
