Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 0P and 4B. BS2

The NM_000719.7(CACNA1C):c.70C>T(p.Arg24Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000152 in 1,578,244 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R24H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

CACNA1C (HGNC:1390): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 C) This gene encodes an alpha-1 subunit of a voltage-dependent calcium channel. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. The alpha-1 subunit consists of 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. The calcium channel consists of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. There are multiple isoforms of each of these proteins, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. The protein encoded by this gene binds to and is inhibited by dihydropyridine. Alternative splicing results in many transcript variants encoding different proteins. Some of the predicted proteins may not produce functional ion channel subunits. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]

p.Arg24Cys (CGC>TGC): c.70 C>T in exon 2 of the CACNA1C gene (NM_000719.6). The Arg24Cys variant in the CACNA1C gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Arg24Cys results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a positively charged Arginine with a neutral, polar Cysteine at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts Arg24Cys is possibly damaging to the protein structure/function. The NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Arg24Cys was not observed in approximately 6,000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Nevertheless, no mutations in nearby codons have been reported in association with LQTS. With the clinical and molecular information available at this time, we cannot definitively determine if Arg24Cys is a disease-causing mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -

Significance:Uncertain significance

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 24 of the CACNA1C protein (p.Arg24Cys). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT Syndrome (PMID: 31737537). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190675). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CACNA1C protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.R24C variant (also known as c.70C>T), located in coding exon 2 of the CACNA1C gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 70. The arginine at codon 24 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in a Brugada syndrome cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Marschall C et al. Cardiovasc Diagn Ther, 2019 Oct;9:S292-S298). This missense alteration is located in a region that has a low rate of benign missense variation (Lek M et al. Nature. 2016 Aug 18;536(7616):285-91; DECIPHER: Database of Chromosomal Imbalance and Phenotype in Humans using Ensembl Resources. Firth H.V. et al. 2009. Am.J.Hum.Genet. 84, 524-533 (DOI: dx.doi.org/10/1016/j.ajhg.2009.03.010)). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
