Genes affected
GJB4 (HGNC:4286): (gap junction protein beta 4) This gene encodes a transmembrane connexin protein that is a component of gap junctions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with erythrokeratodermia variabilis, progressive symmetric erythrokeratoderma and hearing impairment. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]
SMIM12 (HGNC:25154): (small integral membrane protein 12) Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 11, 2022Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 27, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 43 of the GJB4 protein (p.Val43Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs534084173, gnomAD 0.05%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GJB4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1723469). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GJB4 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
