Genes affected
GJC2 (HGNC:17494): (gap junction protein gamma 2) This gene encodes a gap junction protein. Gap junction proteins are members of a large family of homologous connexins and comprise 4 transmembrane, 2 extracellular, and 3 cytoplasmic domains. This gene plays a key role in central myelination and is involved in peripheral myelination in humans. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease-1.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.38).
BP6
Variant 1-228157905-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-228157905-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 261256.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.169 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000932 (142/152282) while in subpopulation EAS AF = 0.0149 (77/5176). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0122. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 86 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 2 AR,AD gene
