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.

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant summary: USH2A c.3367T>C (p.Tyr1123His) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.4e-05 in 250862 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (4.4e-05 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.3367T>C has been observed in individual(s) affected with retinitis pigmentosa (Su_2022, Invitae). 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. A different variant affecting the same codon has been classified as pathogenic by our lab (c.3368A>G(p.Tyr1123Cys)), supporting the critical relevance of codon 1123 to USH2A protein function. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 36034145). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242590). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1123 of the USH2A protein (p.Tyr1123His). This variant is present in population databases (rs794729204, gnomAD 0.05%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (PMID: 28559085; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242590). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt USH2A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Tyr1123 amino acid residue in USH2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24367894, 26927203, 33576794; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
