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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -3 ACMG points.

PM1

In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_004004.6

PP2

Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 111 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 10 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.72044 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.4379 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 1A, ichthyosis, hystrix-like, with hearing loss, keratoderma hereditarium mutilans, hearing loss, autosomal recessive, Bart-Pumphrey syndrome, palmoplantar keratoderma-deafness syndrome, autosomal dominant keratitis-ichthyosis-hearing loss syndrome, autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 3A, autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, KID syndrome.

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.01572612).

BP6

Variant 13-20189571-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr13-20189571-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 44724.

BS2

High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 7 AR,AD geneVariant has number of homozygotes lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.
