Description

Based on ACMG/AMP guidelines and Hearing Loss Expert Panel specific criteria: the filtering allele frequency of c.503A>G, p.(Lys168Arg) variant in GJB2 gene is 0,015% (10/35418 Latino 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 criteria to apply to PM2_Supporting rule. Computational evidence predicted a pathogenic effect of the mutation to the protein (REVELscore: 0.720) applying to PP3 criteria. The p.(Lys168Arg) change has been identified only in heterozygous state in several patients (PMID: 17567889, 19125024, 20381175, 20497192, 21728791, 24156272, 19887791). Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is currently uncertain (PM2_Supporting, PP3).
