RCV003114101 | SCV003795406 | likely pathogenic | not provided | 2022-07-06 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant results in a copy number gain of the genomic region encompassing exon(s) 62-63 of the USH2A gene. While the exact position of this variant cannot be determined from the data, sub-genic copy number gains are generally in tandem (PMID: 25640679). This variant is predicted to be out-of-frame, and may result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in USH2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10729113, 10909849, 20507924, 25649381). A similar copy number variant has been observed in individual(s) with retinitis pigmentosa (Invitae). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. |
