Invitae RCV000466155 SCV000544782 pathogenic Charcot-Marie-Tooth Neuropathy X 2023-11-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg220*) in the GJB1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 64 amino acid(s) of the GJB1 protein. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with X-linked dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (PMID: 7477983, 8162049, 9364054, 21291455). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 10435). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on GJB1 function (PMID: 8816997, 9364054, 9592087). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Ambry Genetics RCV002362576 SCV002664676 pathogenic Inborn genetic diseases 2020-05-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R220* pathogenic mutation (also known as c.658C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the GJB1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 658. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 1. This stop codon occurs at the 3' terminus of GJB1 and is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay; however, it impacts the last 64 amino acids and removes approximately 23% of the protein. This alteration has been detected in multiple patients and families with X-linked dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and has been shown to co-segregate with disease (Fairweather N et al. Hum. Mol. Genet., 1994 Jan;3:29-34; Ionasescu VV. Cell Biol. Int., 1998 Nov;22:807-13; Tsai PC et al. Ann Clin Transl Neurol, 2016 11;3:854-865). Functional studies have demonstrated protein mislocalization and altered gap junction channel activity (Tsai PC et al. Ann Clin Transl Neurol, 2016 11;3:854-865; Ressot C et al. J. Neurosci., 1998 Jun;18:4063-75; Carrer A et al. Hum. Mol. Genet., 2018 01;27:80-94). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
