Genes affected

GJA8 (HGNC:4281): (gap junction protein alpha 8) This gene encodes a transmembrane connexin protein that is necessary for lens growth and maturation of lens fiber cells. The encoded protein is a component of gap junction channels and functions in a calcium and pH-dependent manner. Mutations in this gene have been associated with zonular pulverulent cataracts, nuclear progressive cataracts, and cataract-microcornea syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.922

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.35A>G (p.E12G) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the GJA8 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 35, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 12 to be replaced by a glycine (G). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
