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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a chain Gap junction beta-1 protein (size 282) in uniprot entity CXB1_HUMAN there are 4 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000166.6
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.978
• PP5: Variant X-71224249-T-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-71224249-T-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 234844.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 181 of the GJB1 protein (p.Val181Glu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 234844). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GJB1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. This variant disrupts the p.Val181 amino acid residue in GJB1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9361298, 17100997, 19259128, 21692908, 25947624). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (Stenson et al., 2014); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge -
