Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate
The NM_206933.4(USH2A):c.13732A>G(p.Lys4578Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000434 in 1,614,058 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. 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. K4578Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Usher syndrome type 2A Uncertain:2

not specified Uncertain:1
Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Lys4578Glu va riant in USH2A has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss or Usher syndrome, but has been identified in 4/11568 of Latino chromosomes and 3/66732 of European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http ://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs765354805). The lysine (Lys) at position 457 8 is not conserved in mammals or evolutionarily distant species and 2 mammals (c ape elephant shrew and opossum) carry a glutamic acid (Glu) at this position, ra ising the possibility that this change may be tolerated. Additional computationa l prediction tools do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, while the clinical significance of the p.Lys4578Glu varian t is uncertain, its presence in mammals suggests that it is more likely to be be nign. -

not provided Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 4578 of the USH2A protein (p.Lys4578Glu). This variant is present in population databases (rs765354805, gnomAD 0.02%). 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: 229620). 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 C15". The glutamic acid amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
