Description

Observed in a patient with hearing loss in published literature; however, no specific information on the patient is available (Putcha GV et al., 2007); Frameshift variant predicted to result in protein truncation, as the last 223 amino acids are replaced with 9 different amino acids, and other loss-of-function variants have been reported downstream in HGMD; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 17666888)

Description

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly4Alafs*10) in the GJB2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 223 amino acid(s) of the GJB2 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with deafness (PMID: 17666888). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 496214). This variant disrupts a region of the GJB2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Leu213*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 23141775). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
