  • For family 29, USH2A haplotypes are not homozygous. It is possible they are p.Arg4192His hemizygous and have a deletion on the other allele.

  • * Unless stated otherwise, the alleles were not observed in control chromosomes.

  • Caucasian: UK and European.

  • Parental origin could not be determined. Patient and affected sib are homozygous for the mutation.

  • § Consanguineous family.

  • Found in 1/872 (0.11%) control chromosomes.

  • ** Found in 2/860 (0.23%) control chromosomes.

  • †† Splice mutation; causes USH2A:p.Pro2533Asnfs*5.23

  • ‡‡ Large deletion speculated based on patient's homozygosity of USH2A haplotypes and failure to amplify exon.

  • §§ Last nucleotide of the exon.

  • ¶¶ Deletion strongly suspected based on homozygosity for GPR98 markers (USH2A excluded based on haplotype analysis), and apparent non-inheritance of GPR98 SNPs in the family and PCR non-amplification of patient's as well as affected sib's DNAs (supplemental figure 3).

  • *** Not reported as a consanguineous family. Usher is compatible with mutation in GPR98 (affected sibs are homozygous for a GPR98 haplotype); USH2A is excluded by haplotype analysis.

  • P, Pathogenic; UV unclassified variant.
