Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5_Very_Strong
The NM_033056.4(PCDH15):c.3316C>T(p.Arg1106*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000103 in 1,461,318 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R1106R) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

The p.Arg1106Ter variant in PCDH15 has been reported in 2 individuals with Usher syndrome type 1F (PMID: 19375528, 18484607) and has been identified in 0.004% (5/113538) of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP ID: rs202033121). Although this variant has been seen in the general population in a heterozygous state, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency. This variant has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID#: 46464) and has been interpreted as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by Fulgent Genetics, Counsyl, Laboratory for Molecular Medicine (Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine), Invitae, and Natera, Inc.. Of the 2 affected individuals, 1 of those was a homozygote, which increases the likelihood that the p.Arg1106Ter variant is pathogenic (PMID: 19375528). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 1106, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Loss of function of the PCDH15 gene is an established disease mechanism in autosomal recessive Usher syndrome type 1F. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome type 1F. ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: PVS1, PM2_supporting, PM3_supporting (Richards 2015). -

Nonsense variant predicted to result in protein truncation or nonsense mediated decay in a gene for which loss of function is a known mechanism of disease; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25525159, 18484607, 19375528) -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1106*) in the PCDH15 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in PCDH15 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 11398101, 11487575, 14570705). This variant is present in population databases (rs202033121, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 18484607, 19375528). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 46464). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The p.Arg1106X variant in PCDH15 has been reported in the homozygous state in on e individual with Usher syndrome type I (Ammar-Khodja 2009). It has also been id entified in 5/111450 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gn omAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs202033121). Although this varian t has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be con sistent with a recessive carrier frequency. The p.Arg1106X variant leads to a pr emature stop codon at position 1106, which is predicted to lead to a truncated o r absent protein. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pa thogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome based on the previously reported individual, low frequency in the general population, and predicted loss of func tion of the protein. -
