Description

Variant summary: USH2A c.11864G>A (p.Trp3955X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.2e-05 in 251168 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (9.2e-05 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.11864G>A has been reported in the literature as biallelic homozygous or compound heterozygous genotypes in multiple individuals affected with Usher Syndrome (example, PMID: 27460420, 28944237). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
