Genes affected

GJB5 (HGNC:4287): (gap junction protein beta 5) This gene encodes a member of the beta-type (group I) connexin family. The encoded protein is a gap junction protein involved in intercellular communication related to epidermal differentiation and environmental sensing. This gene has been linked to non-small cell lung cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]

The c.563T>G (p.L188R) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the GJB5 gene. This alteration results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 563, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 188 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
