Description

Reported in the heterozygous state without a second variant in patients with sensorineural hearing loss in the published literature (PMID: 34515852, 25401782); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25388846, 25555641, 25401782, 34515852)

Description

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 221 of the GJB2 protein (p.Lys221Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs375599392, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with GJB2-related conditions (PMID: 25401782, 25555641). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 44764). 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 not expected to disrupt GJB2 protein function. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
