This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 303 of the USH2A protein (p.Arg303His). This variant is present in population databases (rs371777049, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome and retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 19881469, 25342620, 28157192). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 284411). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt USH2A protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg303 amino acid residue in USH2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with USH2A-related conditions (PMID: 14970843, 28157192), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: USH2A c.908G>A (p.Arg303His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Laminin, N-terminal domain (IPR008211) of 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 3.6e-05 in 250388 control chromosomes. c.908G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Usher Syndrome (example, Sanchez-Alcudia_2014, Weisschuh_2020, Schrauwen_2019, Bonnet_2016). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Ten clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

USH2A-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The USH2A c.908G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg303His. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state with a pathogenic or likely pathogenic USH2A variant in multiple individuals with Usher Syndrome (Yan et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19881469; Bonnet et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 21569298; Garcia-Garcia et al. 2011. PubMed ID: 22004887; Baux et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24944099; Sanchez-Alcudia et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25342620; Bravo-Gil et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28157192; Eandi et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 29142287). This variant is reported in 0.0062% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. This variant has been classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by multiple independent submitters to the ClinVar databse (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/284411/). Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
