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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a chain Gap junction beta-1 protein (size 282) in uniprot entity CXB1_HUMAN there are 4 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000166.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986
• PP5: Variant X-71223808-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-71223808-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 406224.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chrX-71223808-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy X Pathogenic:1

Aug 16, 2016

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals affected with CMTX (PMID: 9401007. 11571214) and has been observed to co-segregate with disease in an affected family (PMID: 8829637). Experimental studies in Xenopus oocytes have shown that this missense change affects the electrophysiological properties of the channel encoded by GJB1, known as Connexin 32 in the literature (PMID: 9354338). Additional experiments in HeLa cells found that this missense change alters the sub-cellular localization of Connexin 32 (PMID: 12460545). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This sequence change replaces methionine with threonine at codon 34 of the GJB1 protein (p.Met34Thr). The methionine residue is moderately conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between methionine and threonine. -

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The GJB1 c.101T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Met34Thr. This variant has been reported in individuals with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (Reported as Met34->Thr in Tan et al 1996. PubMed ID: 8829637; Dubourg. 2001. PubMed ID: 11571214; Supp. Table 2 Volodarsky M et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32376792). Functional studies indicate this variant alters protein function (Oh S et al 1997. PubMed ID: 9354338). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating this variant is rare. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
