Invitae RCV000796941 SCV000936476 pathogenic Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy X 2022-10-18 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 447441). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type X (CMTX) (PMID: 8004109, 9401007, 11571214, 21692908). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg22*) in the GJB1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 262 amino acid(s) of the GJB1 protein. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002367716 SCV002659174 pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2023-11-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The c.64C>T (p.R22*) alteration, located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the GJB1 gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 64. This changes the amino acid from a arginine (R) to a stop codon at amino acid position 22. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant has been detected in several individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy X type 1 (CMTX1) (Ionasescu, 1994; Rouger, 1997; Mandich, 2008; Dubourg, 2001). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic.
Neurogenomics Lab, Neuroscience Institute, University Of Cape Town RCV000763633 SCV003930347 pathogenic Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease X-linked dominant 1 2024-05-22 criteria provided, single submitter research PM2_supporting: This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.0 (adequate coverage >20x confirmed) and an internal database of 1074 control alleles. PM1 met: variant occurs in the N-terminus connexin domain together with other pathogenic variants. PS4 met: variant identified in = 10 unrelated probands with consistent phenotype for disorder. PVS1 met: null variant (nonsense or frameshift variant, predicted to undergo NMD, exon is present in biologically-relevant transcript) in a gene where LOF is a known mechanism of disease. PP1 met: variant segregates with 3 informative meioses in 1 family (PMID: 8698335).
