Genes affected
GJA1 (HGNC:4274): (gap junction protein alpha 1) 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. The encoded protein is the major protein of gap junctions in the heart that are thought to have a crucial role in the synchronized contraction of the heart and in embryonic development. A related intronless pseudogene has been mapped to chromosome 5. Mutations in this gene have been associated with oculodentodigital dysplasia, autosomal recessive craniometaphyseal dysplasia and heart malformations. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect showing compromised channel function and a complete lack of functional electrical coupling (Shibayama et al., 2005); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 16418219, 16378922, 34094714, 12457340, 32224865, 25327171, 30628995, 15879313) -

Oculodentodigital dysplasia, autosomal recessive Pathogenic:1

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 40 of the GJA1 protein (p.Ala40Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal dominant oculodentodigital dysplasia (PMID: 12457340, 25327171, 30628995). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 435323). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt GJA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GJA1 function (PMID: 15879313). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
