Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine RCV000041837 SCV000065533 uncertain significance not specified 2016-10-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.Ser1369Leu variant in USH2A has been previously reported in three individu als with Usher syndrome, one individual with retinitis pigmentosa, and one indiv idual with hearing loss (Colombo 2015, Cremers 2007, Dad 2015, Wang 2014, LMM da ta). In the proband with retinitis pigmentosa, a second variant of uncertain si gnificance was identified and the two variants segregated in an affected sibling ; however, cis/trans testing was not performed (Wang 2014). In the remaining pr obands, a pathogenic variant affecting the remaining copy of USH2A was not ident ified. This variant has been identified in 13/65610 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs201 709513); however, this frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic rol e. The serine (Ser) at position 1369 is not conserved through species, with 2 m ammals (squirrel and brush-tailed rat) and 2 bird species having a leucine, sugg esting that this change may be tolerated. Additional computational prediction t ools do not provide strong support for or against an impact to the protein. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Ser1369Leu variant is uncertain.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000726718 SCV001234991 pathogenic not provided 2024-01-29 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1369 of the USH2A protein (p.Ser1369Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs201709513, gnomAD 0.08%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with USH2A-related disease (PMID: 20591486, 24154662, 26927203, 27957503, 31047384; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 48511). 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 not expected to disrupt USH2A protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002307377 SCV001448380 likely pathogenic Usher syndrome 2022-10-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: USH2A c.4106C>T (p.Ser1369Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Fibronectin type III domain (IPR003961) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00016 in 250578 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (0.00016 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.4106C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with features of Usher Syndrome and with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) (e.g. Cremers_2007, Zhao_2015, Dad_2016). Furthermore, the variant was shown to co-segregate with retinitis pigmentosa in siblings from two different families (Wang_2014, Comander_2017). At-least one putative "in cis" co-occurrence of the variant with either of two other pathogenic variants (c.9270C>A, p.C3090X or c.6159delA, p.E2054KfsX10; phase unknown) has been reported in one RP patient (Wang_2014), while in another instance following internal testing the variant was reported in cis (confirmed via parental studies) with a pathogenic variant (c.6159delA, p.E2054KfsX10) in one individual. These data indicate that the variant is likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Nine clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Multiple laboratories reported the variant with conflicting assessments (VUS, n=3; Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic, n=6). Some submitters cite overlapping evidence utilized in the context of this evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely pathogenic.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV004732594 SCV005358052 likely pathogenic USH2A-related disorder 2024-03-22 no assertion criteria provided clinical testing The USH2A c.4106C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser1369Leu. This variant has been reported in multiple unrelated patients with Usher syndrome or retinitis pigmentosa (Table S4, Pierrache et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26927203; Dad et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25804404; Comander et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28981474; Wang et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24154662; Colombo et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26075083; Table S2, Zampaglione et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32037395; Molina-Ramírez et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32176120; Tables S5 and S7, Colombo et al 2021. PubMed ID: 33576794). This variant has been reported in conjunction with a pathogenic USH2A variant in multiple individuals, however, segregation analysis to determine phase was not reported for all cases (Hariri et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 31047384; Yohe et al 2019. PubMed ID: 31816670; Molina-Ramírez et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32176120; Colombo et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 33576794; Lynn et al. 2022. PubMed ID: 36672815; Panneman et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36819107). This variant was also shown to segregate with disease in siblings from two unrelated families with retinitis pigmentosa (Wang et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 24154662; Comander et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28981474). This variant is reported in 0.077% of alleles in individuals of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar ranging from uncertain to pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/48511/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic.
