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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 27, 2021This sequence change replaces threonine, a(n) neutral and polar amino acid, with methionine, a(n) neutral and non-polar amino acid, at codon 5 of the GJB2 protein (p.Thr5Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs781085903, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GJB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 585738). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
