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]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the GJA1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 41 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 1 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.2784 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.3775 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to craniometaphyseal dysplasia, autosomal recessive, Hallermann-Streiff syndrome, syndactyly type 3, oculodentodigital dysplasia, nonsyndromic genetic hearing loss, hypoplastic left heart syndrome 1, autosomal dominant palmoplantar keratoderma and congenital alopecia, oculodentodigital dysplasia, autosomal recessive, craniometaphyseal dysplasia, erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 3, erythrokeratodermia variabilis.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.11708552).
BP6
Variant 6-121447932-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr6-121447932-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 16990.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_benign=1, Uncertain_significance=1}.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000125 (19/152102) while in subpopulation AMR AF= 0.000786 (12/15276). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000452. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 11 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position pass quality control queck.
