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.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Glu4458Aspfs*3) 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 present in population databases (rs727503715, gnomAD 0.0009%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with USH2A-related conditions (PMID: 17405132, 28041643). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 166428). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The c.13374delA variant in the USH2 gene has been reported previously in the compound heterozygous state with a second USH2 variant in patients with Usher syndrome type II (Baux et al., 2007; Le Quesne Stabej et al., 2012). The c.13374delA variant causes a frameshift starting with codon Glutamic Acid 4458, changes this amino acid to a Aspartic Acid residue, and creates a premature Stop codon at position 3 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Glu4458AspfsX3. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The c.13374delA variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). We interpret c.13374delA as a pathogenic variant. -

The p.Glu4458fs variant in USH2A has been reported in four individuals with Ushe r syndrome, all of whom are compound heterozygous with a second pathogenic USH2A variant (Baux 2007, Stabej 2012). It has not been identified in large populat ion studies. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the p rotein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 4458 and leads to a premature termination codon 3 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted t o lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, this variant meets our crit eria to be classified as pathogenic for usher syndrome in an autosomal recessive manner (www.partners.org/personalizedmedicine/lmm). -
