Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2

The NM_206933.4(USH2A):​c.8392G>A​(p.Gly2798Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000109 in 1,461,840 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G2798A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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.

The p.Gly2798Arg variant in USH2A has not been reported in any individuals with hearing loss or Usher syndrome in any other families. This variant has been iden tified in 1/66738 chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http:// exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs397518037); however, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. The Glycine (Gly) at position 2798 is not highly conserved in mammals and evolutionary distant species, and several specie s including 2 mammals (prairie vole and black flying fox) carry a arginine (Arg) , raising the possibility that the change at this position may be tolerated. Add itional computational prediction tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogeni city. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Gly2798Arg variant is uncer tain. -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 2798 of the USH2A protein (p.Gly2798Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs397518037, gnomAD 0.003%). 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: 48600). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C65". The arginine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
