Genes affected
GJA5 (HGNC:4279): (gap junction protein alpha 5) This gene is 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 may be associated with atrial fibrillation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 326 of the GJA5 protein (p.Gly326Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs782703462, gnomAD 0.0009%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GJA5-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1316153). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

GeneDx
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports that this variant does not alter protein structure/function; Reported in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance, but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 566272; Landrum et al., 2016)
