Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the CACNA1S gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Pore-forming, alpha-1S subunit of the voltage-gated calcium channel that gives rise to L-type calcium currents in skeletal muscle. Calcium channels containing the alpha-1S subunit play an important role in excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle via their interaction with RYR1, which triggers Ca(2+) release from the sarcplasmic reticulum and ultimately results in muscle contraction. Long-lasting (L-type) calcium channels belong to the 'high-voltage activated' (HVA) group. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P07293}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Periodic paralysis hypokalemic 1 (HOKPP1) [MIM:170400]: An autosomal dominant disorder manifested by episodic flaccid generalized muscle weakness associated with falls of serum potassium levels. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17418573, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18162704, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19118277, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7987325, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8004673}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Malignant hyperthermia 5 (MHS5) [MIM:601887]: Autosomal dominant disorder that is potentially lethal in susceptible individuals on exposure to commonly used inhalational anesthetics and depolarizing muscle relaxants. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9199552}. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis 1 (TTPP1) [MIM:188580]: A sporadic muscular disorder characterized by episodic weakness and hypokalemia during a thyrotoxic state. It is clinically similar to hereditary hypokalemic periodic paralysis, except for the fact that hyperthyroidism is an absolute requirement for disease manifestation. The disease presents with recurrent episodes of acute muscular weakness of the four extremities that vary in severity from paresis to complete paralysis. Attacks are triggered by ingestion of a high carbohydrate load or strenuous physical activity followed by a period of rest. Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis can occur in association with any cause of hyperthyroidism, but is most commonly associated with Graves disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15001631}. Note=Disease susceptibility is associated with variations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
