Genes affected

GJB2 (HGNC:4284): (gap junction protein beta 2) This gene encodes a member of the gap junction protein family. The gap junctions were first characterized by electron microscopy as regionally specialized structures on plasma membranes of contacting adherent cells. These structures were shown to consist of cell-to-cell channels that facilitate the transfer of ions and small molecules between cells. The gap junction proteins, also known as connexins, purified from fractions of enriched gap junctions from different tissues differ. 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 are responsible for as much as 50% of pre-lingual, recessive deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Tyr68Cys in exon 2 of GJB2: This variant has been reported with a similar frequency in individuals with hearing loss (3/4,032 (.07%)) and controls (3/7,770 (.04%)) and none of the 3 probands were noted to have a second GJB2 variant (Guo 2008, Roux 2004, Tsukada 2010). In addition, this variant is not conserved across mammals. In summary, the data suggests that this variant is most likely benign. -
