Genes affected
GJB6 (HGNC:4288): (gap junction protein beta 6) Gap junctions allow the transport of ions and metabolites between the cytoplasm of adjacent cells. They are formed by two hemichannels, made up of six connexin proteins assembled in groups. Each connexin protein has four transmembrane segments, two extracellular loops, a cytoplasmic loop formed between the two inner transmembrane segments, and the N- and C-terminus both being in the cytoplasm. The specificity of the gap junction is determined by which connexin proteins comprise the hemichannel. In the past, connexin protein names were based on their molecular weight, however the new nomenclature uses sequential numbers based on which form (alpha or beta) of the gap junction is present. This gene encodes one of the connexin proteins. Mutations in this gene have been found in some forms of deafness and in some families with hidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -14 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.84).
BP6
Variant 13-20221981-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr13-20221981-G-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 311373.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00787 (1199/152342) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.0128 (868/68032). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0121. There are 9 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 559 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 9 AD,AR gene
