Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 23P and 0B. PS3 PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000166.6(GJB1):​c.467T>G​(p.Leu156Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000322234: Published functional studies demonstrate that L156R mutant formed defective junctional channels (Wang et al., 2004)" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. L156F) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

GJB1 (HGNC:4283): (gap junction protein beta 1) This gene encodes a member of the gap junction protein family. The gap junction proteins are membrane-spanning proteins that assemble to form gap junction channels that facilitate the transfer of ions and small molecules between cells. 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 cause X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, an inherited peripheral neuropathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000322234: Published functional studies demonstrate that L156R mutant formed defective junctional channels (Wang et al., 2004); SCV000841717: Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID:15006706); SCV000544773: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GJB1 function (PMID: 15006706).; SCV002634487: "In an assay testing GJB1 function, this variant showed a functionally abnormal result (Wang, 2004)."
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 11 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 19 uncertain in NM_000166.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chrX-71224174-T-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 976021.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 135 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 4 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: NaN (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to X-linked progressive cerebellar ataxia, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease X-linked dominant 1.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.964
• PP5: Variant X-71224174-T-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-71224174-T-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 10437.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
