Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points: 17P and 0B. PVS1 PP2 PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_004004.6(GJB2):​c.51_62delCACCAGCATTGGinsA​(p.Thr18LysfsTer26) variant causes a frameshift, missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. S17S) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 17 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 241 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 111 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 10 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: -0.72044 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.4379 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 1A, ichthyosis, hystrix-like, with hearing loss, keratoderma hereditarium mutilans, hearing loss, autosomal recessive, Bart-Pumphrey syndrome, palmoplantar keratoderma-deafness syndrome, autosomal dominant keratitis-ichthyosis-hearing loss syndrome, autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss 3A, autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss, KID syndrome.
• PP5: Variant 13-20189520-CCAATGCTGGTG-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-20189520-CCAATGCTGGTG-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 17013.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This variant is expected to result in the loss of a functional protein. This variant appears to segregate with autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss and deafness in at least one family. This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). -
