Description

The p.E208K pathogenic mutation (also known as c.622G>A), located in coding exon 1 of the GJB1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 622. The glutamic acid at codon 208 is replaced by lysine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration has been detected in individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy and has been reported to segregate with disease in families (Fairweather N et al. Hum Mol Genet, 1994 Jan;3:29-34; Feng SY et al. J Clin Neurol, 2018 Apr;14:261-263). Additionally, studies have shown that this alteration affects the function of the GJB1 protein (Deschênes SM et al. J Neurosci, 1997 Dec;17:9077-84; Ressot C et al. J Neurosci, 1998 Jun;18:4063-75; VanSlyke JK et al. Mol Biol Cell, 2000 Jun;11:1933-46; Wang HL et al. Neurobiol Dis, 2004 Mar;15:361-70). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
