Description

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 70 of the GJB2 protein (p.Pro70Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs200023879, gnomAD 0.007%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness (PMID: 12865758; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1384271). 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. This variant disrupts the p.Pro70 amino acid residue in GJB2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with GJB2-related conditions (PMID: 12865758, 17666888), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
