Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points: 4P and 16B. PM1PM5BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1

The NM_024009.3(GJB3):​c.109G>A​(p.Val37Met) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000211 in 1,614,080 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. V37L) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 6 uncertain in NM_024009.3
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr1-34784872-T-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 421156.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.052661836).
BP6
Variant 1-34784871-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr1-34784871-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 226643.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000177 (27/152190) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.00131 (20/15278). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000867. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 17 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
