Genes affected

GJD2 (HGNC:19154): (gap junction protein delta 2) This gene encodes a member of the connexin protein family. Connexins are gap junction proteins which are arranged in groups of 6 around a central pore to form a connexon, a component of the gap junction intercellular channel. The channels formed by this protein allow cationic molecule exchange between human beta cells and may function in the regulation of insulin secretion. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]

The c.511G>A (p.V171I) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the GJD2 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 511, causing the valine (V) at amino acid position 171 to be replaced by an isoleucine (I). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
