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]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJul 03, 2023For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the PCDH15 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Val1578Alafs*6) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 33089500; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 229138). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with PCDH15-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs781231890, gnomAD 0.005%). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln1535Lysfs*28) in the PCDH15 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 421 amino acid(s) of the PCDH15 protein. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineNov 16, 2015The p.Gln1535fs variant in PCDH15 has not been previously reported in individual s with hearing loss, but has been identified in 2/8654 East Asian chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP r s781231890). This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the p rotein?s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1535 and leads to a premature termination codon 28 amino acids downstream. This termination codon occurs with in the last exon and is more likely to escape nonsense mediated decay (NMD) and result in a truncated protein. In addition, a different frameshift variant in t his exon has been reported at high frequency in African Americans and is not con sidered to be clinically significant, indicating that truncating variants in thi s region may not be clinically significant (Perrault-Micale 2014). In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Gln1535fs variant is uncertain. -
