Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PP4PP1PP3PM2_SupportingPS4PM3_Strong

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The allele frequency of the p.Gly1861Ser variant in USH2A is 0.017% (3/17184) of East Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), which is a low enough frequency to award PM2_Supporting based on the thresholds defined by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Expert Panel for autosomal recessive hearing loss (PM2_P). This variant was found to have a statistically higher prevalence in affected individuals over controls (PS4; PMIDs: 26310143, 26338283, 23737954, Partners LMM internal data SCV000065557.5). This variant has been detected in 4 patients with hearing loss in trans with pathogenic or suspected-pathogenic variants (PM3_S; PMIDs: 26310143, 26338283, 23737954, Partners LMM internal data SCV000065557.5). The variant has been reported to segregate with hearing loss in one affected family member (PP1, PMID:26310143). At least one patient with a variant in this gene displayed features of mild to severe hearing loss and retinitis pigmentosa (PP4; PMID:PMIDs: 26310143, 26338283, 23737954, Partners LMM internal data SCV000065557.5). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Gly1861Ser variant may impact the protein (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the Hearing Loss Expert Panel: PS4, PM2_P, PP3, PM3_S, PP1, PP4.

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.

Usher syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, reviewed by expert panelcurationClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert PanelSep 14, 2018The allele frequency of the p.Gly1861Ser variant in USH2A is 0.017% (3/17184) of East Asian chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), which is a low enough frequency to award PM2_Supporting based on the thresholds defined by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Expert Panel for autosomal recessive hearing loss (PM2_P). This variant was found to have a statistically higher prevalence in affected individuals over controls (PS4; PMIDs: 26310143, 26338283, 23737954, Partners LMM internal data SCV000065557.5). This variant has been detected in 4 patients with hearing loss in trans with pathogenic or suspected-pathogenic variants (PM3_S; PMIDs: 26310143, 26338283, 23737954, Partners LMM internal data SCV000065557.5).

Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Gly1861Ser variant may impact the protein (PP3). In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive Usher syndrome based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the Hearing Loss Expert Panel: PS4, PM2_P, PP3, PM3_S, PP1, PP4. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 24, 2023Variant summary: USH2A c.5581G>A (p.Gly1861Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the laminin G domain (IPR001791) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 250216 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.5581G>A has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals affected with Usher Syndrome, including cases where it was confirmed to be in trans with a pathogenic variant (e.g. Huang_2013, Jiang_2015, Huang_2015, Zheng_2015, Guan_2021). 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. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34416374, 25356976, 23737954, 26338283, 26310143). Four submitters, including the ClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert Panel, have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpOct 19, 2023This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1861 of the USH2A protein (p.Gly1861Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs375668376, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 23737954, 25356976, 26310143, 26338283, 29625443). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 48535). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt USH2A protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesSep 05, 2023The USH2A c.5581G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Gly1861Ser. This variant has been reported along with a second potentially causative variant including at least one truncating variant in patients with retinitis pigmentosa, nonsyndromic hearing loss, and Usher syndrome (Huang. 2013. PubMed ID: 23737954; Chen. 2020. PubMed ID: 32893482; Supplemental, Gao. 2021. PubMed ID: 32188678; Table S3, Guan. 2021. PubMed ID: 34416374; Table S5, Huang. 2015. PubMed ID: 25356976; Zheng. 2015. PubMed ID: 26310143). This variant is reported in 0.016% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/1-216246634-C-T) and is interpreted as pathogenic by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert Panel (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/48535/). This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
