Identified Mutation |
32854 G>C; Titin, or connectin, is a giant muscle protein expressed in the cardiac and skeletal muscles that spans half of the sarcomere from Z line to M line. Titin plays a key role in muscle assembly, force transmission at the Z line, and maintenance of resting tension in the I band region (Itoh-Satoh et al., 2002). |

Identified Mutation |
1-BP DEL, 35G; A mutation consisting of deletion of 1 guanine (G) in a run of 6 guanines extending from position 30 to position 35 in the GJB2 gene has been observed by several groups. Some referred to the deleted nucleotide as 30G (the first of the 6 Gs), whereas others referred to it as 35G. The second mutation found by Carrasquillo et al. [Hum. Molec. Genet. 6: 2163-2172 (1997)] to be responsible for nonsyndromic recessive deafness (220290) in a Muslim-Israeli village in the lower Galilee was a deletion of a guanine residue at cDNA position 35 (35delG), causing a frameshift of the coding sequence leading to premature chain termination at the twelfth amino acid. |
Remarks |
Unaffected carrier; extensive cardiac and muscle examination showed no evidence of cardiomyopathy or skeletal myopathy at age 46; genetic testing revealed that the donor is heterozygous for a mutation in exon 168 of the TTN gene: p.Val10952Leu (GTT>CTT), c.32854G>C; heterozygous mutation detected in the GJB2 gene: 35delG; son with centronuclear myopathy and connexin 26 hearing loss is GM23417-lymphoblast/GM25936-fibroblast; carrier mother of affected son is GM25951 (lymphoblast) and maternal grandmother of affected son is GM25993 (lymphoblast); family is referenced in Neurology (2013) 81:1205-14, PMID:23975875-affected son is subject 314-1. |
