Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina RCV000011195 SCV000482715 likely benign Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease X-linked dominant 1 2017-04-28 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign.

Ambry Genetics RCV002362577 SCV002662103 uncertain significance Inborn genetic diseases 2014-07-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.F235C variant (also known as c.704T>G), located in coding exon 1 of the GJB1 gene, results from a T to G substitution at nucleotide position 704. The phenylalanine at codon 235 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties.This variant, which occurs in the C-terminal domain, is purported to result in a gain of function activity and is associated with a severe and early onset form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (Bone, LJ et al. Neurobiol Dis 1997;4:221-30, Kim, Y et al. Clin Genet 2012;81:142-149, Liang, GS et al. Ann Neurol 2005;57:749-754, Lin, GS et al. Ann NY Acad Sci 1999;883:481-4). This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs104894825. Based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, the G allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0% (0/503) total male alleles studied. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the G allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.16% (4/2443) total male alleles studied, having been observed in 0.7% (4/571) African American male alleles. This amino acid position is conserved in available mammalian species, but is not conserved from chicken down. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence for this variant is conflicting at this time, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
