Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PP3PS3_ModeratePM3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.583A>G is a missense variant predicted to cause a substitution of methionine by valine at amino acid 195 (p.Met195Val). The highest population minor allele frequency in gnomAD v4.1.0 is 0.022% (16/44880, CI 95%) in the East Asian population (PM2_Supporting, BS1, and BA1 are not met). This variant has been detected in 4 individuals with hearing loss with another pathogenic or suspected-pathogenic variant found in trans (4 PM3 points PMIDs: 24013081, 20497192, 30146550,33597575) (PM3_VeryStrong). It has also been identified in several probands with hearing loss in whom a second variant was not identified (PMIDs: 23555729, 19366456, 19125024, 27627659, 24507663). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.962 which is above the threshold of 0.7, evidence that correlates with impact to GJB2 function (PP3). Analysis in Hela cells demonstrated that the CX26-p.Met195Val protein was not transported to the cell membrane since there is an accumulation of the protein in the endoplasmic reticulum, indicating that this variant impacts protein function (PMID:26749107; PS3_Moderate). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Hearing Loss VCEP (PP3, PM3_VeryStrong, PS3_Moderate; Version 2; 5/15/24).

Genes affected
GJB2 (HGNC:4284): (gap junction protein beta 2) This gene encodes a member of the gap junction protein family. The gap junctions were first characterized by electron microscopy as regionally specialized structures on plasma membranes of contacting adherent cells. These structures were shown to consist of cell-to-cell channels that facilitate the transfer of ions and small molecules between cells. The gap junction proteins, also known as connexins, purified from fractions of enriched gap junctions from different tissues differ. According to sequence similarities at the nucleotide and amino acid levels, the gap junction proteins are divided into two categories, alpha and beta. Mutations in this gene are responsible for as much as 50% of pre-lingual, recessive deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

not provided Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 27, 2023This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 195 of the GJB2 protein (p.Met195Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs532203068, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive GJB2-related conditions (PMID: 20497192, 24013081, 30146550, 33597575). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant GJB2-related conditions (PMID: 19125024, 19366456, 21366436, 23555729); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225375). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GJB2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GJB2 function (PMID: 26749107). This variant disrupts the p.Met195 amino acid residue in GJB2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 3A Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testing3billionSep 01, 2022The variant is observed at an allele frequency greater than expected for the associated disorder in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. Functional studies provide strong evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 26749107). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.96; 3Cnet: 0.99). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000225375). The variant has been observed in at least four similarly affected unrelated individuals (PMID: 19125024, 19366456, 21366436, 23555729). A different missense change at the same codon (p.Met195Ile) has been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000438621 , VCV001334161 , VCV001479826). The variant is in trans with the other pathogenic variants (PMID: 19125024,24507663,30146550). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -
GJB2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJan 10, 2024The GJB2 c.583A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met195Val. This variant has been reported in the compound heterozygous state in multiple individuals with hearing loss (Tsukada. 2010. PubMed ID: 20497192; Wang. 2021. PubMed ID: 33597575; Minami. 2013. PubMed ID: 24013081). This variant is reported in 0.022% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD and is interpreted as likely pathogenic by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert Panel (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/225375/). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic. -
