Description

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Studies have shown that disruption of the initiator codon alters GJB2 gene expression (PMID: 12189493). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 551915). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive non-syndromic deafness (PMID: 9482292, 10218527, 18941476, 20146813, 29605365). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the GJB2 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 34.
