Genes affected
GJB3 (HGNC:4285): (gap junction protein beta 3) This gene is a member of the connexin gene family. The encoded protein is a component of gap junctions, which are composed of arrays of intercellular channels that provide a route for the diffusion of low molecular weight materials from cell to cell. Mutations in this gene can cause non-syndromic deafness or erythrokeratodermia variabilis, a skin disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein.

SMIM12 (HGNC:25154): (small integral membrane protein 12) Predicted to be integral component of membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points.

PM1
In a chain Gap junction beta-3 protein (size 269) in uniprot entity CXB3_HUMAN there are 17 pathogenic changes around while only 4 benign (81%) in NM_024009.3
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.958
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000554 (81/1461880) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.000638 (55/86256). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000503. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 57 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 5 AD,Digenic gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineAug 07, 2014The Arg22Cys variant in GJB3 has not been previously reported in individuals wit h hearing loss, but has been identified in 2/8600 of European American chromosom es by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbS NP rs145247495). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis sugges t that this variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predi ctive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, the clinical significance o f the Arg22Cys variant is uncertain. -
