The variant received 6 classification points (ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019). PVS1_StrongPM2

The NM_001384140.1(PCDH15):c.5105_5108dupTTGA (p.Ser1704fs) variant causes a frameshift, stop gained change. This is a loss-of-function variant that does not trigger NMD. Note: allele frequency estimates from gnomAD may be inaccurate for this variant type (MNP or indel longer than 3 bp) due to technology limitations. The variant allele was found at a cumulative frequency of 0.0000682 (AC=110) in the gnomAD database across 1,613,728 control chromosomes (no homozygotes observed). The grpmax filtering allele frequency (95% CI) is 0.000061. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain Significance (★★).

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]

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 6 points.

PVS1
Non-NMD frameshift: ≥4 pathogenic in truncated region — strong (PVS1 downgraded to PS); Frameshift (exon 38 of 38) at amino acid 1703 of 1740; NMD not predicted. 4 pathogenic variants in the affected exon support its functional importance. A new stop codon is introduced in the shifted frame, truncating the protein to ~1703 amino acids (37 amino acids lost).
PM2
Very rare in gnomAD for AR/unknown gene (popmax AF < threshold/10) — PM2; GnomAD popmax AF = 0.000061 — very rare for AR gene (threshold 0.001) — PM2 moderate.
