Description

Trp4149Arg in Exon 63 of USH2A: This variant is not expected to have clinical si gnificance because it has been identified in 2.7% (100/3738) of African American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http ://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs115884084).

Description

Variant summary: USH2A c.12445T>C (p.Trp4149Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 0.0023 in 250364 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.03 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 7 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 2.7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome phenotype (0.011), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. Although reported in the literature, to our knowledge, no penetrant association of c.12445T>C in individuals affected with Usher Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as benign/likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign.
