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]

It has been reported in individuals with non-syndromic hearing loss 1A (PMID: 10218527, 12189487, 12497637, 15365987) (PM3), and functional studies suggest this variant is partially defective (PMID: 12189493, 16300957) (PS3). It has been observed in gnomAD with a frequency of 0.060% in the heterozygous state (PM2). This variant is predicted to be deleterious by multiple computational models (CADD: 28.800)(PP3). The evolutionary conservation of this residue is high. We classify this variant as pathogenic. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingKnight Diagnostic Laboratories, Oregon Health and Sciences UniversityFeb 25, 2016The c.269T>C (p.Leu90Pro) missense variant in the GJB2 gene is a common variant reported in individuals affected with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss and deafness (Löffler et al., 2001). This variant has been observed in trans with the well-characterized GJB2c.35delG variant (Denoyelle et al., 1999, Löffler et al., 2001). Multiple studies have shown this variant impairs proper assembly and function of the gap junction channel (Thönnissen et al., 2002; D'Andrea et al., 2002; Bruzzone et al., 2003; Palmada et al., 2006). This c.269T>C has been reported at low frequency or absent in three control population databases (Exome Sequencing Project [ESP] = 0.058%, 1000 Genomes = NA, and ExAC = 0.151%). Multiple lines of computational evidence predict a deleterious effect (GERP = 5.33; CADD = 23.5; PolyPhen = 1; SIFT = 0), and multiple reputable diagnostic laboratories report this variant as pathogenic. Therefore, this collective evidence supports the classification of the c.269T>C (p.Leu90Pro) as a recessive pathogenic variant for Nonsyndromic hearing loss and deafness. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 01, 2017Variant summary: The GJB2 c.269T>C (p.Leu90Pro) variant involves the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. 5/5 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant, and this mutation affects a highly conserved residue of the encoded gap junction protein and has been shown to be coupling deficient by in vitro functional assays (Thonnissen_2001). The observed allele frequency in controls, including the large and diverse ExAC cohort, is 108/123096 (1/1140), which is lower than the maximal expected allele frequency for an ARNSHL-causing GJB2 variant (1/40). This variant has been reported in several NSHL patients in homozygous as well as compound heterozygous state with other pathogenic variants, including evidence of cosegregation with disease in multiple families (Rabionet_2000, Marlin_2001, Tang_2006, Salvago_2014). In addition, several diagnostic laboratories/reputable databases classify the variant as pathogenic. Taking all evidence together, this variant has been classified as pathogenic. -

This variant is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 17016), and is found predominantly in the non-Finnish European population with an allele frequency of 0.12% (153/129066 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. Additionally, other variants at this codon (c.269T>G; p.Leu90Arg and c.268C>G; p.Leu90Val) have been reported in individuals with mild hearing loss (Lim 2003, Lipan 2011). Functional analyses of the p.Leu90Pro variant protein shows significant loss of junctional conductance (Bruzzone 2003, D'Andrea 2002, Palmada 2006, Thonnissen 2002). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. REFERENCES Bruzzone R et al.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 90 of the GJB2 protein (p.Leu90Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs80338945, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive deafness (PMID: 10218527, 12172392, 12189487, 12497637, 15365987). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17016). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GJB2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GJB2 function (PMID: 12189493, 16300957). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsDec 29, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). This variant segregates with disease in multiple families. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. See PMID: 12176036, 16300957, 12505163. In multiple individuals, this variant has been seen with a single recessive pathogenic variant in the same gene, suggesting this variant may also be pathogenic. -

Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoDec 10, 2021GJB2 NM_004004.5 exon 2 p.Leu90Pro (c.269T>C): This variant has been reported in the literature in the homozygous or compound heterozygous state in several individuals with nonsyndromic hearing loss (D'Andrea 2002 PMID:12176036, Tekin 2003 PMID:14738110, Zoll 2003 PMID:12497637, Azaiez 2004 PMID:15365987, Mikstiene 2016 PMID:26896187, Likar 2018 PMID:29293505, Prasad 2018 PMID:29554876). This variant is also present in 0.1% (153/129066) of European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/13-20763452-A-G). Please note, disease causing variants may be present in control databases at low frequencies, reflective of the general population, carrier status, and/or variable expressivity. This variant is present in ClinVar, with several labs classifying this variant as pathogenic (Variation ID:17016). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In addition, functional studies have shown a deleterious effect of this variant through impairment of gap junction channel assembly and function (D'Andrea 2002 PMID:12176036, Bruzzone 2003 PMID:12505163, Palmada 2006 PMID:16300957). However, these studies may not accurately represent in vivo biological function. In summary, this variant is classified as pathogenic based on the data above. -

Nonsyndromic genetic hearing loss Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingINGEBI, INGEBI / CONICETAug 31, 2020Based on ACMG/AMP guidelines and Hearing Loss Expert Panel specific criteria: the filter allele frequency of c.269T>C, p.Leu90Pro variant in GJB2 gene is 0.1% (153/129066 European non-Finnish alleles with 95% CI) from Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; calculated by using inverse allele frequency at https://www.cardiodb.org/allelefrequencyapp/), which meets the BS1_Supporting rule. Computational analysis of p.Leu90Pro change predicted a damage impact to the protein (REVELscore:0.981; PP3). This variant has been identified in at least 15 hearing loss individuals in trans with c.35delG variant and in trans with several known pathogenic variants meeting PM3_VerySrong (PMID: 10218527, 10830906, 10982180, 11313763, 11493200, 12176179, 14985372, 15967879, 163800907, 19173109, 24158611). Functional studies in HeLa cells showed that p.Leu90Pro mutant displayed neither very low incidence of dye transfer (LY and DAPI), not tracer (neurobitin) diffusion (PMID: 12176036, 12189493). In addition to this, electrophysiological recordings in Xenopus Laevis oocytes demonstrated that there was not junctional conductance levels detected when p.Leu90Pro mutant was injected (PMID: 12505163). Besides, partial dominant effect on hCX30 was determined but not on CX26; PS3_Moderate. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss: BS1_Supporting, PP3, PM3_VeryStrong, PS3_Moderate. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineAug 10, 2017The p.Leu90Pro variant in GJB2 is a common, well-known pathogenic variant for au tosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss (Cryns 2004). The p.Leu90Pro variant has been identified in 0.12% (151/126606) of European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs8033894 5). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is low enough to be consistent with a recessive carrier frequency for hearing l oss. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for non-syndromic hearing loss in an autosomal recessive manner. ACMG/AMP Criteria a pplied: PM3_VeryStrong; PS3; PP1; PP3. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingDASASep 02, 2021The missense variant c.269T>C;p.(Leu90Pro) in the GJB2 gene is classified as pathogenic related with DFNB1 nonsyndromic hearing (ClinVar ID: 17016; OMIM: 121011.0016; PMID: 11313763; 26896187; 20301449; 25214170; 24793888; 12176036; 16300957; 24158611; 22281373; 22037723; 33333757; 29293505; 29311818; 25189242) – PS4. This variant is present at very low allele frequencies population databases (rs80338945 - gnomAD; ABraOM) - PM2_ supporting. The p.Leu90Pro was detected in trans with a pathogenic variant (PMID: 25214170; 24793888; 26896187; 24158611; 22281373; 22037723; 29293505; 25189242) - PM3_very strong; and the predictions coincide with pathogenicity – PP3. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic. -
