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.Glu2054Lysfs*10) 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 (rs769838859, gnomAD 0.08%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with a USH2A-related condition (PMID: 25097241). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 497726). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: USH2A c.6159delA (p.Glu2054LysfsX10) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 3.2e-05 in 251396 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.6159delA has been reported in the literature in individuals with Retinitis Pigmentosa phenotype (e.g. Wang_2014, Sharon_2020). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Four ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -
