GeneDx RCV000594966 SCV001785237 uncertain significance not provided 2021-09-24 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Observed in a patient with Usher syndrome in published literature who had a second variant in USH2A, although additional clinical information and segregation data were not provided (Dedania et al., 2017); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28704108)
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000594966 SCV002265261 pathogenic not provided 2022-08-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Gly4516 amino acid residue in USH2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with USH2A-related conditions (PMID: 28127548), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 498883). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of USH2A-related conditions (PMID: 28704108; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 4516 of the USH2A protein (p.Gly4516Ala).
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV003987614 SCV004804492 uncertain significance not specified 2024-01-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: USH2A c.13547G>C (p.Gly4516Ala) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III domain (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 250978 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.13547G>C has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with retinal dystrophy, specifically an Usher phenotype (e.g. Dedania_2018). Although it was reported in compound heterozygosity with another variant (p.Gly1132Asp), this second variant has conflicting evidence for pathogenicity in ClinVar, with the most severe classification being VUS and most submitters classifying it as benign/likely benign. Therefore, this report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the p.Gly4516Ala variant with Usher Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 28704108). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 498883). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance.
