Genes affected
GJA4 (HGNC:4278): (gap junction protein alpha 4) This gene encodes a member of the connexin gene family. The encoded protein is a component of gap junctions, which are composed of arrays of intercellular channels that provide a route for the diffusion of low molecular weight materials from cell to cell. Mutations in this gene have been associated with atherosclerosis and a higher risk of myocardial infarction. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
SMIM12 (HGNC:25154): (small integral membrane protein 12) Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.007856071).
BP6
Variant 1-34794607-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-34794607-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 789257.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.00981 (14251/1453264) while in subpopulation MID AF = 0.02 (115/5764). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.017. There are 75 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 7251 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 36. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 9 AR gene
