Genes affected
GJB4 (HGNC:4286): (gap junction protein beta 4) This gene encodes a transmembrane connexin protein that is a component of gap junctions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with erythrokeratodermia variabilis, progressive symmetric erythrokeratoderma and hearing impairment. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
SMIM12 (HGNC:25154): (small integral membrane protein 12) Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInstitute of Human Genetics, University of GoettingenJul 03, 2023The variant c.121G>A (p.(Glu41Lys)) in exon 2 of the GJB4-gene is found at a very low frequency in the gnomAD database (< 0.001%), it affects a weakly conserved nucleotide and a highly conserved amino acid within a protein domain and there is a small physicochemical difference between Glu and Lys. This variant has a pathogenic computational verdict based on in silico prediction algorithms. ACMG criteria used for classification: PM2_mod, PP3. -
