Genes affected
NALCN (HGNC:19082): (sodium leak channel, non-selective) This gene encodes a voltage-independent, nonselective cation channel which belongs to a family of voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels that regulates the resting membrane potential and excitability of neurons. This family is expressed throughout the nervous system and conducts a persistent sodium leak current that contributes to tonic neuronal excitability. The encoded protein forms a channelosome complex that includes G-protein-coupled receptors, UNC-79, UNC-80, NCA localization factor-1, and src family tyrosine kinases. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy, infantile hypotonia with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies (IHPRF) syndrome, and congenital contractures of the limbs and face with hypotonia and developmental delay (CLIFAHDD) syndrome. A knockout of the orthologous gene in mice results in paralysis with a severely disrupted respiratory rhythm, and lethality within 24 hours after birth. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]
NALCN-AS1 (HGNC:42743): (NALCN antisense RNA 1)

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 16, 2022In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. 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 NALCN protein function. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with NALCN-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs189387840, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1689 of the NALCN protein (p.Arg1689Gln). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 20, 2023Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function -
