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.

Variant summary: USH2A c.11954G>A (p.Trp3985X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant was absent in 251330 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.11954G>A in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp3985*) 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 not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with USH2A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 48388). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The Trp3985X variant in USH2A has not been reported in the literature nor previo usly identified by our laboratory. The Trp3985X variant leads to a premature sto p codon at position 3985, which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent pr otein. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogeni c. -
