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]

Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpApr 13, 2016Variant summary: The c.341A>G (p.E114G) in GJB2 gene is a missense change that alters a non-conserved nucleotide and 4/5 in silico tools predict benign outcome. The variant was observed in the large and broad cohorts of the ExAC project at an allele frequency of 1.5%, predominantly in individuals of East Asian descent (18,8%) including numerous homozygous occurrences. This frequency suggests that the variant is a common ethnic-specific functional polymorphism. The variant has been reported to be mainly found in complex form (in cis with V27I) and in trans with V27I ( as well as with other variants) in both affected and unaffected individuals. Ogawa et al., (2014) report this complex variant to be found in unaffected individual who also carried p.Y136X on the other allele. In several patients reported by Dai et al, this variant occurred as complex forms p.[E114G;V27I] and [E114G;V27I;R127H] in compound heterozygosity swith known pathogenic variants, such as c.35delG, c.235delC, c.299_300delAT,Y125X, and c.424_426delTTC. Of typical observation, two patients were compound heterozygous for this variant and c.235delC. Furthermore, the complex p.[E114G;V27I] also co-occurred in cis with a known pathogenic variant (V37I) in four patients suggesting this complex is not pathogenic. Several independent groups showed that E114 in isolation or in complex with V27I formed gap junctions comparable to controls. In the field, this variant is widely accepted to be a polymorphism (Shearer et al., 2014). Taken together, the variant was classified as Benign. -

It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
