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 submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 25, 2024This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 61 of the USH2A gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in USH2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10729113, 10909849, 20507924, 25649381). This variant is present in population databases (rs397517978, gnomAD 0.04%). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individual(s) with Usher syndrome (PMID: 18452394, 22004887, 25404053, 28981474). 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: 48390). 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. -

Usher syndrome type 2A Pathogenic:5
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Oct 01, 2021NM_206933.2(USH2A):c.12067-2A>G is a canonical splice variant classified as pathogenic in the context of USH2A-related disorders. c.12067-2A>G has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 27460420, 18452394, 22004887). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. c.12067-2A>G has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: AMR 0.04%). In summary, NM_206933.2(USH2A):c.12067-2A>G is a canonical splice variant in a gene where loss of function is a known mechanism of disease, is predicted to disrupt protein function, and has been observed more frequently in cases with the relevant disease than in healthy populations. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionSep 01, 2022The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: 0.008%). Canonical splice site is predicted to alter splicing and result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function. Multiple pathogenic loss-of-function variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000048390 / 3billion dataset). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMay 13, 2013The 12067-2A>G variant in USH2A has been reported in five individuals with Usher syndrome type 2, one individual with autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa a nd one individual with congenital sensorineural hearing loss (Sandberg 2008, Aus lender 2008, Garcia-Garcia 2011, LMM unpublished data). Four of these probands w ere homozygous or compound heterozygous. Segregation of this variant with disea se was demonstrated in two affected family members (Auslender 2008). In addition , this variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or ab sent protein. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pa thogenic. -

Pathogenic, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesAug 20, 2024The USH2A c.12067-2A>G variant is predicted to disrupt the AG splice acceptor site and interfere with normal splicing. This variant has been reported many times as causative for Usher syndrome (see for examples: Auslender et al. 2008. PubMed ID: 18452394; Aparisi et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25404053; González-Del Pozo. 2018. PubMed ID: 30190494). This variant is reported in 0.041% of alleles in individuals of Latino descent in gnomAD. Variants that disrupt the consensus splice acceptor site in USH2A are expected to be pathogenic. Given the evidence, we interpret this variant as pathogenic. -
