Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_000166.6(GJB1):c.259C>G(p.Pro87Ala) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P87S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
GJB1 (HGNC:4283): (gap junction protein beta 1) This gene encodes a member of the gap junction protein family. The gap junction proteins are membrane-spanning proteins that assemble to form gap junction channels that facilitate the transfer of ions and small molecules between cells. 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 cause X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, an inherited peripheral neuropathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy X Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 06, 2022This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 87 of the GJB1 protein (p.Pro87Ala). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on GJB1 function (PMID: 9354338). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 155724). This missense change has been observed in individuals with X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 8990008, 19062535, 25802885). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
