Genes affected
GJC2 (HGNC:17494): (gap junction protein gamma 2) This gene encodes a gap junction protein. Gap junction proteins are members of a large family of homologous connexins and comprise 4 transmembrane, 2 extracellular, and 3 cytoplasmic domains. This gene plays a key role in central myelination and is involved in peripheral myelination in humans. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease-1.

Spastic paraplegia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 05, 2023This variant, c.472_474dup, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid(s) of the GJC2 protein (p.Glu158dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GJC2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 241297). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
