Genes affected
PCDH15 (HGNC:14674): (protocadherin related 15) This gene is a member of the cadherin superfamily. Family members encode integral membrane proteins that mediate calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion. It plays an essential role in maintenance of normal retinal and cochlear function. Mutations in this gene result in hearing loss and Usher Syndrome Type IF (USH1F). Extensive alternative splicing resulting in multiple isoforms has been observed in the mouse ortholog. Similar alternatively spliced transcripts are inferred to occur in human, and additional variants are likely to occur. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]

Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 23 Pathogenic:1
Feb 28, 2023
King Laboratory, University of Washington
Significance: Pathogenic
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: research

This variant occurred in compound heterozygosity with a PCHD15 missense variant in an individual with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss of onset <18 years, in a study of pediatric hearing loss conducted by the King Laboratory (Carlson RJ et al. JAMA-OtoHNS 2023). At the time of recruitment, this patient did not have any known visual impairment (age 13y). This patient's family has no other history of hearing loss. This variant is a 4bp deletion that causes a frameshift which is predicted to lead to the addition of 3 incorrect amino acids and introduce an early stop at position 1560 of the otherwise 1783 amino acid length protein. Only the PDCH15 isoform critical to hearing, and not the others, would be changed by this variant (PMID: 32747562, 24940003). As of January 2023, this variant has been reported previously in an individual with hearing loss and is currently classified as a variant of unknown significance to ClinVar, and it is found in 13 heterozygous individuals on gnomAD. Based on the prediction that this variant leads to a truncated protein and goodness of fit of genotype to phenotype, we conclude that this variant is pathogenic. -

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

The p.Val1558fs variant in PCDH15 has been reported in two individuals with hear ing loss; however, a variant affecting the remaining copy of PCDH15 was not iden tified in any of these individuals (Sloan-Heggen 2016, LMM data). This variant h as been identified in 8/66278 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Cons ortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs483353074); however, its f requency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. This variant affects the coding region of only one minor transcript of the PCDH15 gene, and is predic ted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginn ing at position 1558 and leads to a premature termination codon 3 amino acids do wnstream in a minor isoform of the protein. This termination codon occurs within the terminal 50 bases of the last exon, likely to escape nonsense mediated deca y (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. The functional impact of this truncat ion is unclear. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Val1558fs variant is uncertain. -
