Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000824736 SCV000063394 pathogenic Rare genetic deafness 2012-05-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The Tyr6fs variant (PCDH15) has been reported in the literature (Zheng 2005, Ouy ang 2005). This frameshift variant is predicted to alter the protein?s amino aci d sequence beginning at position 6 and lead to a premature termination codon 6 a mino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic.

GeneDx RCV001008080 SCV001167819 pathogenic not provided 2018-11-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.16delT pathogenic variant in the PCDH15 gene has been reported previously in association with Usher syndrome type I. It was identified as heterozygous in one affected individual who was also heterozygous for a variant in CHD23 (Zheng et al., 2005), and as heterozygous in an unrelated affected individual with no second variant identified (Ouyeng et al. 2005). The deletion causes a frameshift starting with codon Tyrosine 6, changes this amino acid to an Isoleucine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 6 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Tyr6IlefsX6. This pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either through protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. It is is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). In summary, we interpret this variant as pathogenic.
