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]

Significance:Likely benign

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

Based on ACMG/AMP guidelines and Hearing Loss Expert Panel specific criteria: the c.384C>T p.(Ile128=) variant in GJB2 gene is absent from population databases (gnomAD, GO-ESP, 1000 genomes) meeting PM2 criteria. This variant has been detected in a heterozygous state in two hearing impaired patients (PMID:928500, 11102979). In a previous report we detected the p.Ile128= variant in cis with a pathogenic variant (PMID: 24158611). Since the cause of the hearing loss was the c.[35delG];[167delT] genotype, the p.(Ile128=) change is in cis with one of these alleles applying to BP2 rule. Computational evidence predicted that the mutation is not conserved between species (GERPscore:-1.12; BP4) and there is no impact on splicing (analyzed with Human Splicing Finder) meeting BP7 rule. Therefore, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign for autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (PM2, BP2, BP4 and BP7). -
