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]

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance:Pathogenic

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gln80*) in the GJB2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 147 amino acid(s) of the GJB2 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs199883710, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive deafness (PMID: 17041943, 30168495). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371685). This variant disrupts a region of the GJB2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.His100Argfs*14) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10633133, 12111646, 20083784, 22991996, 24341454, 26043044, 27610647). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Variant summary: GJB2 c.238C>T (p.Gln80X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251380 control chromosomes. c.238C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss (Putcha_2007, Singh_2018, Tang_2006). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 17666888, 30168495, 17041943). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 371685). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
