Description

Published functional studies demonstrate that the W77R variant did not form homotypic junctional channels, had impaired intercellular coupling, was inefficiently targeted to the plasma membrane, and was retained in intracellular stores (Martin et al., 1999; Bruzzone et al., 2003); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 12064630, 22975760, 14985372, 12505163, 10556284, 9328482, 25388846, 30139988, 15967879, 15964725, 10982180, 11102979, 16380907, 11935342, 22785241, 21726435, 31163360, 31827275, 32747562, 33096615, 31589614, 33105617)

Description

This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 77 of the GJB2 protein (p.Trp77Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs104894397, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness (PMID: 16467727, 16545002, 19371219). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17003). 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: 10556284, 12064630, 12505163). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
