The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). This variant has been identified in multiple individuals with clinical features associated with this gene and appears to be associated with disease in at least one family. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 15006706) The variant is located in a region that is considered important for protein function and/or structure. -
The R164W pathogenic variant has been published numerous times in association with CMT (Ionasescu et al., 1995; Ionasescu et al., 1996; Oterino et al., 1996; Young et al., 2001). Functional studies using dual whole-cell voltage-clamp recordings show that R164W impaired the formation and function of junctional channels (Wang et al., 2004). Additionally, different amino acid substitutions at this same position (R164G/Q) and in nearby residues have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with CMT (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional significance of this region of the protein. R164W was not observed with any significant frequency in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project. R164W is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which occurs at a position that is conserved across species. Therefore, R164W is interpreted to be a pathogenic variant. -
Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy X Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 164 of the GJB1 protein (p.Arg164Trp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) (PMID: 7580242, 8733054, 11437164, 28469099). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as c.552C>T. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217170). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GJB1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GJB1 function (PMID: 11571214, 15006706). This variant disrupts the p.Arg164 amino acid residue in GJB1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9187667, 25025039, 27844031). 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. -
