Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5

The ENST00000241125.4(GJA3):​c.7G>C​(p.Asp3His) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D3Y) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr13-20143282-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2735992.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 27 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 6 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.7112 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: -0.026578 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to early-onset nuclear cataract, pulverulent cataract, early-onset posterior polar cataract, cataract 14 multiple types.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.944
• PP5: Variant 13-20143282-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-20143282-C-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 217343.
