Description

Variant summary: GJB2 c.283G>A (p.Val95Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Connexin, N-terminal domain (IPR013092) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 251540 control chromosomes (gnomAD, Cheng_2005, Kelley_1998). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in GJB2 causing Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss (4.8e-05 vs 0.025), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.283G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss (e.g. Castro_2013, Cheng_2005, Cryns_2004, Kelley_1998, Dalamon_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. One publication reports that the variant negatively impacted large molecule trafficking across gap junctions, thereby disrupting gap junction mediated intracellular signaling (Zhang_2005). Nine ClinVar submitters have assessed the variant since 2014: all have classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
