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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpFeb 09, 2022Variant summary: PCDH15 c.1591C>T (p.Leu531Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Cadherin-like domain (IPR002126) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. 4/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 250986 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0021 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. This frequency is not higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in PCDH15 causing Usher Syndrome Type 1F (0.00016 vs 0.0032), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.1591C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome Type 1F without evidence for causality (examples: Rong_2014, Xu_2015, Chen_2016, and Sun_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Usher Syndrome Type 1F. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classified the variant as VUS (n=2) and likely benign (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Usher syndrome type 1D Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMyriad Genetics, Inc.Nov 10, 2021NM_033056.3(PCDH15):c.1591C>T(L531F) is a missense variant classified as a variant of uncertain significance in the context of PCDH15-related disorders. L531F has been observed in cases with relevant disease (PMID: 27610647, 25999675, 24831256, 29625443). Functional assessments of this variant are not available in the literature. L531F has been observed in population frequency databases (gnomAD: EAS 0.22%). In summary, there is insufficient evidence to classify NM_033056.3(PCDH15):c.1591C>T(L531F) as pathogenic or benign. Please note: this variant was assessed in the context of healthy population screening. -
