RCV000156272 | SCV000205989 | pathogenic | Rare genetic deafness | 2013-12-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | The Trp211X variant in USH2A has not been previously reported in individuals wit h hearing loss or in large population studies. This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 211, which is predicted to lead to a tru ncated or absent protein. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be clas sified as pathogenic (http://pcpgm.partners.org/LMM). |

RCV003479025 | SCV004222874 | pathogenic | Usher syndrome | 2023-11-17 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Variant summary: USH2A c.632G>A (p.Trp211X) results in a premature termination codon and is predicted to cause absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, a commonly known mechanism for disease. The variant was absent in 250800 control chromosomes (gnomAD). To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.632G>A in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. However, another variant resulting in the same amino acid change, c.633G>A (p.Trp211X) has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with Usher Syndrome (e.g. Bonnet_2016, PMID: 27460420). No submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for c.632G>A to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. |
