Genes affected

JUP (HGNC:6207): (junction plakoglobin) This gene encodes a major cytoplasmic protein which is the only known constituent common to submembranous plaques of both desmosomes and intermediate junctions. This protein forms distinct complexes with cadherins and desmosomal cadherins and is a member of the catenin family since it contains a distinct repeating amino acid motif called the armadillo repeat. Mutation in this gene has been associated with Naxos disease. Alternative splicing occurs in this gene; however, not all transcripts have been fully described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: The JUP c.777C>T (p.Gly259Gly) variant involves the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide, resulting in a synonymous change. 5/5 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. This variant was found in 184/121102 control chromosomes (5 homozygotes), predominantly observed in the African subpopulation at a frequency of 0.0167598 (174/10382). This frequency is about 1676 times the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic JUP variant (0.00001), suggesting this is likely a benign polymorphism found primarily in the populations of African origin. In addition, multiple clinical diagnostic laboratories have classified this variant as benign. The variant of interest has been reported in one sample with carcinoma of large intestine as a somatic occurrence without strong evidence for pathogenicity (COSMIC). Taken together, this variant is classified as Benign. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. 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, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. 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 likely benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of likely benign for this disease. -
