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.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.007950932).
BP6
Variant 1-216175293-T-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-216175293-T-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 48520.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 2 AD,AR geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Lys1529Ile in Exon 21A of USH2A: This variant is not expected to have clinical s ignificance because it has been identified in 0.7% (30/4406) of African American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http ://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs41303255). -

Variant summary: USH2A c.4586A>T (p.Lys1529Ile) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Laminin G domain (IPR001791) of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00046 in 250490 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (0.00046 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.4586A>T has been reported in the literature as a heterozygous genotype in at-least one individual affected with Usher Syndrome who was compound heterozygous for two different causal variants in the USH2A gene (example, Sloan-Heggen_2016). Additionally, it has been reported as a heterozygous genotype in an individual with early onset severe retinal dystrophy (EOSRD) and no evidence of hearing defect who harbored a homozygous nonsense variant in the TTLL5 gene supporting a possible alternate etiology of disease (example, Smirnov_2021). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Usher Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Eight clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments and a majority consensus as benign/likely benign (n=5), (VUS, n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
