It has been identified in 6/250260 of the total chromosomes in the genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/, dbSNP rs39812381 4). This low frequency in the general population is consistent with the carrier frequency for autosomal recessive hearing loss. This variant is predicted to ca use a frameshift, which alters the protein?s amino acid sequence beginning at po sition 13 and leads to a premature termination codon 35 amino acids downstream. In summary, this variant meets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autos omal recessive hearing loss based on the predicted impact to the protein and mul tiple previously reported affected compound heterozygotes.

Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV000169169	SCV000919430	pathogenic	Autosomal recessive nonsyndromic hearing loss 1A	2021-02-09	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: GJB2 c.35dupG (p.Val13CysfsX35) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation, which is a commonly known mechanism for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 249362 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.35dupG has been reported in the literature in several individuals affected with Autosomal Recessive Non-Syndromic Hearing Loss (e.g. Rabionet_2000, D'Andrea_2002, Dai_2009, Hjelm_2010, Godbole_2010, Bazazzadegan_2012, Usami_2012, Banjara_2015, Liu_2020). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Eight other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
