Description

The GJB2 c.235delC variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Leu79Cysfs*3). This variant has been reported to be causative for autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (Hwa et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12792423; Chan et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20154630; Pang et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24945352; Xia et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 27045574). This variant is reported in 0.65% of alleles in individuals of East Asian descent in gnomAD. Frameshift variants in GJB2 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic by the ClinGen Hearing Loss Variant Curation Expert Panel (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/17014/). We classify this variant as pathogenic.
